Microwave Kanda Poha

Hey , if it is a Weekend, the day has to begin with a Breakfast of Poha.
The weekend can not be good without it. It's Impossible.
So here is a jhatpat recipe for Microwave Kanda Poha.
Kanda is a word for Onion as used in Maharashtra.
I remember in my hometown Bhopal, if we go out at 7 or 8 in the morning , there are so many shops selling Kadhai's full of Poha with garam Jalebi wrapped in a newspaper :-)
Good old days, Now that I am not living there anymore or in India , I just have to pray that I can still get the good quality Poha in the Indian Grocery shop so that we can still enjoy our favorite Poha Weekends.

Kanda Poha recipe
