- 1 cup yoghurt
- 4 tsp jaggery (gur)
- ¼ tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
- 4 tbsp grated coconut
- 2 tbsp oil(for cooking)

Instructions
- Soak the rice for 4 to 5 hours. Drain.
- Add the poha, yoghurt, approx. 1 teacup of water, jaggery, turmeric and salt and blend in a mixer to form a thick and smooth batter.
- Cover and keep overnight. Add the coconut. If the batter is too thick, add a little water.
