RM 2: Batate Poha

The next dish in my 'Breakfast & Brunch' series is 'Batate Pohe'.

Poha is flattened or beaten rice which have a tendency to swell when added to a liquid, in my recipe its 'water'. The addition of potato gives a distince taste to the recipe and makes it an wholesome experience..:).
