Sweet poha is a very easy to make and delicious recipe made during festivals. It is prepared by adding soaked poha in jaggery mixture and cooked till dry. Adding desiccated coconut enhances the taste and flavor of this dish. I remember my mom making this recipe for Krishna Jayanti and I used to eagerly wait for the pooja to get over, only after which it will be served. This recipe involves no grinding and no pre preparation. So lets get to the making!
