Prepare the Poha: Place the thick poha in a large colander. Rinse it under cold running water for 30-40 seconds, moving your fingers through it gently. Do not soak. Let it drain completely in the colander for 10 minutes. The poha will absorb the residual moisture and become soft and fluffy.
Temper and Sauté Aromatics: Heat ghee in a wide pan or kadai over medium heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add the cumin seeds, hing, and curry leaves, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, add the finely chopped onion, green chilies, and grated ginger. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.
Cook the Peas: Add the green peas, turmeric powder, and salt to the pan. Stir well. If using fresh peas, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water, cover the pan, and cook for 5-6 minutes until they are tender. If using frozen peas, no extra water is needed; cook for just 2-3 minutes.
Combine and Heat Through: Fluff the softened poha with a fork. Add it to the pan along with the sugar and garam masala. Mix everything very gently with a light hand, ensuring you don't break or mash the poha flakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the poha is heated through and has absorbed the flavors.
Finish and Serve: Turn off the heat. Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the poha and add half of the chopped coriander leaves. Give it a final gentle mix. Garnish with the remaining coriander leaves and serve immediately while hot.
