Red Rice poha - the perfect Indian breakfast!

Mind is desi today in first half, yes intentionally mentioned as second half would be out soon and you would know it travelled from India to America in no time :P  Today's craving is for North Indian breakfasts and Masala chai of south, especially Elachi in chai is Kerala special. Of course the Mallu blood needs something south always! As you guys know, Red rice is packed with lot of nutrients. Growing up I did not even know Rice can be white and polished.
