    Dahi poha

    "Curd Poha" is a popular Indian breakfast or snack dish. It consists of flattened rice flakes (poha) mixed with yogurt (curd) and various spices and seasonings. it is a tasty offered to Lord Krishna on Janmashtami.

    Flattened rice variety to use

    Always use thick flattened rice. Thin flattened rice might not hold its texture.

    Can I skip soaking?

    I would recommend soaking as it gives the best mushy texture. Always use hot water as it helps to speed up the process.

    Should I cook flattened rice?

    No, soaking is enough to turn flattened rice soft.

    Should I measure water for soaking 

    It is optional but for the beginner-friendly version, I have included it.

    Can I skip milk?

    Milk is optional but it gives a creamy texture to curd poha so I would recommend it.

    Add-ons for gopalkala

    You can add pomegranates, grapes, or any fruits of your choice.  Chopped cucumber and grated carrots can also be added.

    Shelf Life of thayir aval

    Just like any other curd-based item it is best when consumed immediately. If you are planning to consume after a few hours increase milk and reduce curd.
