Kandha (onion) Poha (pressed rice)

Kandha poha happens to hold lot of childhood memories.My mom use to pack it for the school recess (break).I remember as a kid my parents use to take us to juhu beach and after we were done with playing on the beach, mom and aunt use to serve us wholesome breakfast of poha, tea and boiled eggs (which they had packed )on the beach it self.Oh!! The lovely childhood memories
Kandha poha is made in varried styles and with lot of different ingredients but as u know I like to keep it simple yet delicious.
So here is my take on Kandha Poha..

INGREDIENTS
250gms Poha (thick variety) washed and drained
1 medium sized onion finely chopped
2-3 green chillies finely chopped
3-4 curry leaves
1tspn mustard seeds (rye)
2tspn olive oil
1tspn tumeric powder (haldi)
Salt to taste
Lime and  corriender for garnishing

METHOD
Step1-heat oil in a non stick pan and add mustard seeds, when the seeds crackel add the curry leaves and green chillies
STEP2-Now add the chopped onion and sauté it for a while
STEP3-add in the salt and tumeric powder and poha
STEP4-mix everything well and add little water.Cover the vessel and let the poha simmer for 2-3 mins.
