Instructions

1. 1. Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pan on low flame. Dry roast 2 cups of thin poha (flattened rice) for 3-4 minutes until crisp. Stir continuously to avoid burning. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
2. 2. In the same pan, heat 2 tbsp of oil. Add 1/2 tsp mustard seeds and let them crackle.
3. 3. Add 10-12 curry leaves and 2-3 finely chopped green chilies. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
4. 4. Stir in 2 tbsp of roasted peanuts and 2 tbsp of roasted cashews. Sauté until they turn golden brown.
5. 5. Add 1/4 tsp turmeric powder, 1/2 tsp red chili powder, 1/2 tsp sugar, and salt to taste. Mix well to combine the spices.
6. 6. Reduce the flame to low and add the roasted poha back into the pan. Mix gently to coat the poha evenly with the spiced mixture.
7. 7. Turn off the heat and let the chivda cool completely to room temperature. Once cooled, store it in an airtight container to retain its crispiness.
