Mixture

Mixture is the combination of all snack. Home made mixtures are very flavorful. There is no hard and fast rule for mixture whatever snack you have in hand you can mix it. I was in need of more quantity, so I combined Murukku too. If you are not feeling like to do or don't have the kara boondhi ladle, you can use the store bought and do the other snacks at home.

Ingredients:

• Ompodi - 2 cups
• Kara boondhi - 1 cup
• Rice flakes(Aval) - 3 cups
• Roasted gram(pottukadalai) - 1/2 cup
• Peanuts - 1 cup
• Cashewnuts - 1/4 cup
• Red chilly powder - 1/2 tsp
• Pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
• Salt - as per taste
• Asafoetida - 1/2 tsp
• Oil - to deep fry
• Curry leaves - 1/4 cup

Method:

Heat a wok with oil, deep fry rice flakes, peanuts, cashews separately.

Fry roasted gram and curry leaves and drain in the paper towel. Add ompodi, kara boondhi, all the fried items, red chilly powder, salt, pepper powder,hing and give a nice stir.

Note:

• I was not good at taking small items from oil fast, so I used the strainer immersed in the hot oil to deep fry. After frying just remove the strainer from oil and transfer to paper towel. Sounds easy rite :)
