Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Rinse 1 cup poha in a strainer under cold water until just softened, about 30 seconds. Drain well and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Thinly slice the onion and carrot into matchsticks. Lay the lettuce leaves flat, divide the vegetables among them, roll up tightly, and slice each roll into 2-inch pieces.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds and a few curry leaves if you have them; cook until they splutter, about 30 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Add the rinsed poha, 0.5 tsp turmeric, and salt to taste. Stir gently over low heat until the poha is warm and evenly yellow, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve the poha warm with the vegetable rolls and 0.25 cup green chutney on the side for dipping.
