Indian brunch - Poha

After travelling across the India, you will find that India has vast culture and traditions. This makes India a perfect example of "Unity in Diversity". In line with this, there is diversity in food also. Different states have their unique food to offer. But the love of Indians for street food is unmatchable. Hence, India has many famous street foods. This street foods have made the places to be recognized by their names. This shows the craze of Indians for street food. 

As we are talking about India's street food so let's go through the heart 💓 of India, The Orange 🍊 City - Nagpur. This city has its famous Tarri Poha. You might be wondering that Poha is made across the country then what makes it different from other. Well, here's the catch, the Tarri (gravy) makes it different from others. It is so spicy that even spiciest sauce from across the world cannot satisfy the need of Teekha (spiciness) for Poha lovers. When I was in Nagpur, I used to hear one similar quote from people.

Jao tum Delhi, ya jao Goa...

Nahi milega tumko Nagpur jaisa Tarri Poha

 

As everyone know, Poha is the dish which is prepared in every house as a breakfast. But in Nagpur, they introduce it as Tarri Poha (the thick chana gravy). I will share how to prepare it at last.

 We can say like almost 80% people's morning in Nagpur start with this dish. If you ever get a chance of early-morning bike ride in Nagpur, go for it, you can see and feel the different aromas in every chowk (square) of Nagpur city.

Famous Places in Nagpur for tasting Tarri Poha: -

1. Kasturchand Park 

2. Sadar

3. Lokmat Square

4. Sitabuldi, etc 

 

Wait… Wait...... We are talking about Poha and there is not a single word for the Chai (Tea). It is next to impossible. There is a never-ending love story between Poha and Chai. Tarri poha is totally incomplete without chai. I know Tea is love of every Indian & it tastes best with another side dish. But, the combo of Tea & Poha is something like "The Embroidery on the Cloth" or like "The Icing on the Cake". Even the vendors respect their love & do offer them together. Now, the breakfast of Tarri poha is complete 😅 So we can now look on its recipe.

Ingredients: Need of rice flakes (Poha), Onion, Peanut, Green chili, Potato, Cumin, Turmeric, Edible oil. Prepare the poha and serve it with chana gravy which is called Tarri in Nagpur.
