1. Take 2 cups poha in a plate and spread them to the sides, leaving the center of the plate with a doughnut like structure.
2. Pour water into the plate in the center so that we are not pouring water directly over the poha (the entire poha must be submerged in water).
3. Lightly swirl around with your hand to wash off the powder like layer off the poha.
4. Keep it submerged for 2 minutes and then transfer them to a strainer.
5. Whilst in the strainer add 1/2 tsp haldi and lightly mix the poha; set this aside (for about 10-15 minutes).
