Could I use poha in place of the semolina in this recipe? If so, how would I go about making those adjustments?
Reply
- Hari Chandana Ponnaluri says
Yes, you can. Replace semolina with an equal amount of poha but the water ratio should be 1:2. If you are using 1/2 cup of poha, you will need to use 1 cup of water. I would recommend roasting poha for 3-4 minutes and grind it into a coarse powder. You can check my poha kesari recipe for reference https://www.blendwithspices.com/aval-kesari-poha-halwa-recipe/ Thank you so much! 🙂
