This snack is easy to make and take less time compared to other Diwali snacks like murukku. Millet is a nutritious grain that have high fibre content and good for digestive health, it makes this snack even better than regular sev. It has slight different taste from regular besan omapodi.

About Millet Omapodi

Millet Omapodi is a snack that is made with foxtail millet flour instead of regular besan flour like traditional omapodi. The combination of millet flour and besan flour together makes perfect blend for taste and texture. You can use homemade millet flour or buy readymade pack from store.

Texture is crispy and crunchy throughout, when you bite it break easily and don't feel heavy like regular sev. This look nice and appetizing. Because of the ajwain and hot oil, it become very crispy and stay crunchy for longer time.

You can adjust the dough consistency based on preference, if dough is too tight then pressing will be difficult and omapodi turns out hard. In that case you can sprinkle little water and mix and try pressing again. Some people like it very crispy and some prefer it bit soft, you can adjust by adding or skipping hot oil.

I usually make this during festive season and making millet snacks become new interest for me because millet so healthy and tasty when use in right way.

Indori Poha is soft, light, and has a chat eating experience compared to regular poha. It is traditionally topped with Jeeravan Masala, sev, fresh coriander, pomegranate seeds, and lemon juice, giving it its signature street-style flavor.

2. Which type of poha is best for this recipe?

Thick poha (medium to thick flattened rice) is the best choice because it stays fluffy after rinsing and doesn't turn mushy during cooking.

3. Why did my poha turn mushy?

This usually happens when the poha is soaked for too long or overmixed while cooking. Rinse it briefly under running water, drain well, let it rest for a few minutes, and stir gently.
