Its amazing what a little visibility can do to ingredients. Earlier corn poha used to languish in the store cove. My husband filled it in a nice plastic box. I had assigned spinach for spinach omelette but we eat boiled egg in the morning anyway. It cant wait till weekend to be used up. And thats how we have this Palak Corn Poha. Soak the corn poha in water just for a minute or so.
It was after a summer break in undergrad, my friends shared some snacks with me. Now thats what friends do. But thats when I also learnt that my friends made those Pootharekulu and Murukulu themselves. Seeing others achieve a culinary feat is one step closer to you doing the same. Thats also when my friend explained he arduous process involved in making pootharekulu. And also that its stuffed with fine powdered sugar. So imagine my surprise when I saw these brown speckled pootharekulu. I was imagining if the brown had something to do with the health wagon. And then I learnt that it is that and another wagon, craze - dry fruit. The switch to dry fruit sweets seems to stem from safety reasons .
