Aval Mixture Recipe

Aval Mixture is a easy snack that you can make in few mins, just get ready with all your ingredients and fry them one by one, toss it up with your favorite spices and all done…Your poha mixture is ready….that sounds cool right?! Yesterday night when I was watching a movie and felt like munching something , the snack box was empty but I was reluctant to go make anything just for my sake that instance as I was deep into the movie 😉 so the first thing I did today morning is to make this mixture, clicked it too 🙂 Now I have a box of evening snacks ready for today 🙂

Aval Mixture also called as Poha Chivda – You can easily make this for Diwali 2014 and share it with your friends and relatives.

Check out Cornflakes Mixture and Madras Mixture Recipe which I posted a yr back.

Spicy Poha Chivda Recipe

My Notes:

  • If you like garlic flavour just add 1 crushed garlic along with the curry leaves.
  • Raisins give a nice sweet crunch while eating so dont skip it.
  • Fry each ingredient separately.
  • Wile frying poha make sure oil is just for the poha to immerse else poha will drink more oil.You can even use a strainer to fry poha.Add poha to a strainer and dip it inside oil in that case you can add more oil so that poha immerses well in oil.
  • Adding sesame seeds is optional.
  • This keeps well even for 2 weeks when stored in airtight container.

    Hi, Can the aval be roasted in an oven or dry roasted in a pan with just a smear of oil to solve the problem of extra oil?Or will it turn out hard? Any suggestions? Thank you!
