Is Red Poha more healthier?
Red poha is made from red rice. First the red rice is parboiled, pounded to remove the husk which makes the rice flat. Then the flattened rice flakes are dried, packaged.red rice is not highly processed and retains its bran layer, which makes it healthier than regular white rice. Red rice is rich in fibre, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The red poha recipes taste no different than the typical poha. So we can use more of red poha in place of the regular white poha as a healthy choice!
