Ingredients
- 1 cup Kara Boondi
- 1 cup Omapodi
- 1/4 cup poha

- 1 teaspoon red chilli powder

- salt to taste
Other optional ingredients:
- Ribbon Pakoda
- Mullu Murukku
- Thattai
Instructions
I made boondi and ompodi a day ahead to save time. Make all the ingredients ready - Deep fry peanuts and curry leaves until crisp, drain in a tissue and set aside.
Then fry poha, gram dhal each separately until crisp. You can add a pinch of salt, hing while frying but it is purely optional.
Then fry the cashews. Drain the excess oil in a tissue, set aside.
Take a newspaper / butter paper transfer all the ingredients.
Add red chilli powder / pepper powder and give a quick mix. If you are adding ribbon pakoda, mullu murukku and thattai just crush them with your hands before adding. You can even transfer this to an airtight container and give a quick shake for it to mix evenly.
Your homemade south indian style flavourful mixture is ready!!
