A super quick and easy snack made using poha | aval, called as Aval bhel, served on Baked spring roll sheets. You can serve this on krackjack biscuits or even on the top of papdis too. This is one of the longest title i have given to my posts. To give a explanation about this recipe ,i can say it is a perfect kid friendly snack and can be served as a starter in parties and even it is a best way to impress the guests.

INGREDIENTS:
FOR AVAL (POHA) BHEL
| THICK POHA/AVAL | 1/2 CUP |
| ONION | 1 NO. |
| TOMATO | 1 NO.(SMALL) |
| OIL | 1 TSP |
| RED CHILLI | 2 NO |
| ASAFOETIDA | 1/4 TSP |
| CURRY LEAVES | FEW |
| MUSTARD SEEDS | 1/4 TSP |
| COCONUT (SCRAPPED) | 3 TBLSP |
| NYLON SEV/OMAPODI | 3-4 TBLSP |
| SALT | AS NEEDED |
| SUGAR | 1/2 TSP |
FOR THE BASE:
SPRING ROLL SHEETS- 4-5 NO.
METHOD:
- Wash the poha nicely and drain the water. Mix with salt and sugar and keep it aside for 10 mins.
- Chop the onion and tomato finely.
- In a small pan add oil and throw in the mustard seeds and red chilli , curry leaves, and asafoetida. (Don’t search curry leaves here, I was running out of that on the day I made it).
- When it splutters transfer it to the aval/poha mixture and mix it nicely with your hands.
- Meanwhile, we can start baking the spring roll sheets.
- Thaw the sheets and take out a single sheet.
- I used the small one. Either you can bake the small sheet as it is by keeping it in the muffin liner. If you don’t cut the sheets then it is difficult to fit into your mouth.
- Or you can cut the sheets into two and fold them and keep them in a muffin tray.
- I cut them into 2 and baked them (I forgot to click at this stage. Will update it soon.
- Bake these sheets for 10mins at 150 degrees C or till the sheets turn crisp like a papad.
- Repeat the same process for the rest of the sheets.
- You can do this baking process 2-3 days in advance and keep them in an airtight container.
How I served:
- Just arrange the baked spring roll cups on a plate.
- Add 1 tsp of aval/poha we made.
- Just sprinkle some onion and 2-3 tomato pieces.
- To this add little scrapped coconut and finally garnish with some nylon sev../omapodi.
The poha can be eaten as it as an evening snack without serving on the sheets too.
Notes:
- Just add the onions , tomatoes,coconut and sev while serving .
- Since no cooking is involved this will become soggy soon, prepare this 10 mins before eating.

Wow..Jus go throughing the posts in ur blog after a long time…This is superb snack idea..Cute bhel in edible serving..
it looks good…but in bhel we add chutneys….can we add in aval bhel?it looks tasty.
I don't recommend to add chutneys in this recipes as we add coconut i feel if we add chutneys it will spoil the taste.
