'''Indori poha''' (poha of Indore) is a [[flattened rice]] snack that is likely to have originated in the [[India]]n [[metropolis]] of [[Indore]]. It contains steamed ''poha'' (flattened rice) and is usually served with a unique combination of [[jalebi]] (called '''poha-jalebi''' combined), [[sev (food)|sev]], [[usal]], sliced [[onions]] and [[fennel]] seeds.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1160413/jsp/nation/story_79903.jsp | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160418031003/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1160413/jsp/nation/story_79903.jsp | url-status=dead | archive-date=18 April 2016 | title=Poha off menu at Simhastha stations | work=telegraphindia.com | accessdate=8 May 2016}}</ref><br />

Unlike the other varieties of Poha found across India, Indori Poha is cooked in steam instead of being cooked directly with other ingredients. This provides Indori Poha its distinct taste, softness, and flavor. Vendors generally prefer [[pea]]s instead of [[peanut]]s, in contrast to typical Indian poha dishes. Indori poha is generally served with [[jalebi]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=7 Of The Best Spots in Indore For An Authentic Poha Jalebi |url=https://food.ndtv.com/food-drinks/7-of-the-best-spots-in-indore-for-an-authentic-poha-jalebi-4432391 |access-date=2023-12-24 |website=NDTV Food |language=en}}</ref><br />

==History==<br />
Indori poha gets its name from the city of [[Indore]] which is its place of origin. It is believed that it was created after India's independence (1947). The recipe of Indori poha differs from vendor to vendor, though generally, it comes with a blend of North and Central [[India]]n spices, snacks and [[Namkeen (food)|namkeen]].<ref>{{cite news | url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/weight-loss/Options-for-healthy-snacking-state-wise/articleshow/49113641.cms | title=Options for healthy snacking (state-wise) | work=timesofindia.indiatimes.com | date=3 March 2016 | accessdate=8 May 2016}}</ref><br />
<br />
Indori poha is mainly sold by vendors all around the city during the morning time, often alongside the city's other popular snacks ''"kachori-samosas"''. It is also available in nearby cities [[Ujjain]], [[Dewas]], [[Sagar, Madhya Pradesh|Sagar]], [[Dhar]], [[Ratlam]] and [[Bhopal]] and is becoming a very popular dish in [[Maharashtra]], [[Gujarat]], [[Uttar Pradesh]] and [[Bihar]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cookshideout.com/2014/04/madhya-pradesh-indori-poha-with-jalebi.html|title=Cook's Hideout - Indori Breakfast|publisher=Cook's Hideout|accessdate=8 May 2016}}</ref><br />
