Avalakki Oggarane

Oggarane avalakki is one of the breakfasts I make regularly at home.For this I buy the dappa avalakki/poha.Before buying make sure that avalakki is not broken too much.When i was in delhi I bought Super Brand Poha which was good compared to what we get here in Bangalore.

Ingredients

Avalakki/Poha - 1 cup.

Oil - 5-6 tbsp

Haldi – 1 tbsp

Mustard – 1 spoon

Curry leaves – 8-10

Coriander leaves – ½ cup finely chopped

Tomato – 1

Onions -2

Aloo / Potato – 1 [optional]

Peanuts – 20 [optional]

First wash the avalakki/poha with water, drain the water and keep it aside for 30 min.

Chop the potatoes in to small pieces and boil for 5 min with a pinch of salt.

In a pan,heat oil add haldi,mustard,curry leaves.when the mustard starts to splutter add onions,tomatoes and semi boiled potatoes.Fry all till onions turns in to golden brown colour.

Now add the drained avalakki,salt and cook for 5 min.Since avalakki is very soft it will be cooked easily.Add the chopped coriander leaves and mix it.I also add 3-4 spoons of grated coconut for taste.
