The most memorable Poha (flattened rice dish) I had was at Swad Bhandar, Bhopal. As we approached this popular shop, aroma of hot Poha sifted through the dirty Chattori Galli. Served on “desi” disposable plate of newspaper and plaintain leaf, the bright yellow poha against the 'green plate' only made it more tempting.
One bite and the perfectly cooked poha just melted in the mouth. Garnished with generous amounts of coriander leaves, the freshly made Poha had spiciness, tanginess and sweetness finely blended. A ‘chaat-like’ masala powder seemed to be the special ingrediant.
The lip-smacking Poha made the visit worthwhile.
