Nice upma Saras! I would suggest to add salt while frying onions, it's easy to blend with poha and gives nice taste to onions! 🙂
Adding tomatoes is new to me..shall try next time.

I have a package of poha I bought some time back at the Indian market after remember seeing so many recipes with this, I wanted to try it, but I have yet to do so. Yours looks good for the 1st poha recipe for me to try and I haven't had lunch yet. I just have to go to the market and buy some tomatoes, if I want to do it today
