Ingredients

SEASONING

Instructions

  • Warm up oil in Sauté pan (I use my cast iron skillet) Add curry leaves. They sizzle and crisp up in few minutes.
  • Add fennel seeds, sesame seeds and raisins. Keep stirring on low flame for 5 minutes so everything toasts up and raisins swell and puff up.
  • Add turmeric powder, red chili powder and lemon or lime juice. Mix well. Add rest of the ingredients. Mix well. 
  • On low heat, continue to stir for 8-10 minutes until everything is mixed well and gets heated throught. 
  • Turn off the heat. Let the mixture cool down completely. Enjoy !
  • You can store completely cool down chivda mix in air-tight container for 2 weeks.

Notes

Please make this recipe on low to medium flame since ingredients can burn quickly. Always keep stirring while making it so they roast nicely.
This Savory snack mix is perfect for breakfast or for a crunchy delicious snack in the afternoon. You can also use it as a topping on salads, Oatmeal or pancakes as well.
None of the ingredients soak up the oil like traditional poha or oats, so you don’t need much of oil.
