Poha sticks are crispy and tasty snacks made with poha, semolina (sooji), and regular spices. You can serve it as a tea-time snack with tomato ketchup. Sevai machine is used to prepare poha sticks at home. I recommend using star shape mold to make poha sticks. But in case, if you do not have sevai machine then with your hand make long strips of dough and cut them into equal sizes.
It is crispy, crunchy, and liked by all age groups. It also has a very long shelf life and can be stored it in an airtight container for months. Do try this!
