If you’re bored of eating the same breakfast every morning, this Poha Dumpling recipe will be a total game changer. It’s made with super simple ingredients you already have at home and comes together in no time. Light, healthy, and delicious — it’s the kind of recipe you’ll want to make again and again.

Let’s get started!

All you need is poha (flattened rice), rava (semolina), curd, and a few flavorful spices. In a bowl, mix poha, rava, curd, chopped green chilli, coriander leaves, salt, and a touch of Chukde spices — I’ve used Chukde Turmeric Powder, Coriander Powder, Red Chilli Powder, and Chaat Masala. Add a bit of ginger-garlic paste, baking soda, and a drizzle of oil.

Now, use your hands to mash everything well into a smooth dough — no water needed! Shape small dumplings and steam them for about 10–15 minutes. You can enjoy them as is for a healthy version, or take it up a notch with a quick tempering of rai, jeera, sesame seeds, and a pinch of red chilli powder. Toss the steamed dumplings in this aromatic tadka, garnish with coriander, and dig in!

They’re soft on the inside, slightly crisp outside, and bursting with flavor — the perfect start to your day.

Why Chukde Spices?

Because freshness makes all the difference. Chukde Spices are natural, hygienically processed, and cleaned to retain their natural aroma and flavor. Whether it’s Chukde Turmeric Powder or Chukde Chaat Masala, each spice adds authentic taste and color to your food — no artificial stuff, just real flavor.
