Poha -- known as cheera in Bengali -- is flattened rice made by pressing paddy rice flat into thin, dry flakes. It is one of the most versatile and time-efficient ingredients in the South Asian pantry. Uttam Poha is medium-thickness, which makes it ideal for both wet preparations like poha breakfast and dry snacks like chivda. This 500g pack is the right size for regular use.

Flattened rice has been a south asian grocery essential for centuries, and Uttam delivers consistent quality that Bengali and Indian families trust. Hills Harvest stocks it for customers across western Sydney who want to buy rice products including cheera from a halal grocery store they can rely on.

Rinse briefly and cook with onions, peanuts, turmeric, and curry leaves for a classic poha breakfast. Fry until crispy with spices for a crunchy chivda snack mix. Soak and mix with yoghurt, grated coconut, and sugar for a Bengali-style dahi cheera.

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Uttam Poha and other bengali grocery store staples from Hills Harvest -- halal grocery delivery across western Sydney.
