Cornflakes Mixture | Cornflakes Chivda Recipe

Easy mixture or chivda with cornflakes, nuts and spices, snack for diwali, festival.

Author:	Priti	Category:	Snacks	Cuisine:	Indian
Prep Time:	5 Mins	Cook Time:	10 Mins	Total Time:	15 Mins
Yields:	3 Cups

Ingredients:

• 2 Cups - Cornflakes
• 1/4 Cup - Peanuts
• 1/3 Cup - Halved Cashewnuts
• 1/3 Cup - Raisins
• 10-12 - Curry Leaves
• 1/2 tsp - Red Chili Powder
• To Taste - Salt or Rock Salt
• To Deep Fry - Oil

Method:

1. Heat Oil in a kadai or wok and meanwhile gather all the ingredients. Fry peanuts until light brown, drain. Now add cashewnuts and fry until light brown, don't try to fry it for longer it will get dark very soon and will give bitter taste, place in kitchen tissue.

2. Fry cornflakes in small batches unless you are using big kadai, cornflakes will expand so don't overcrowd too much and whiel you start draining from oil other will get over fried so do in small batch. Once all cornflakes gets fried, add curry leaves and fry until it becomes crispy (make sure you pat dry curry leaves well and do not have any moisture in it).

3. Finally add raisins and off flame, from the oil heat they will get puffed up or you may end up burning them so I always fry in the end with off flame.
4. Keep all the fried ingredients in kitchen tissue or newspaper so extra oil gets absorb. In a large bowl add all fried ingredients, salt or rock salt (kala namak), red chili powder and mix well to combine. Allow to cool completely and store in air tight container.

After cooling completely store in airtight container, stays good for 3-4 weeks.

Notes

• You can modify this recipe to suit your needs, increase or decrease ingredients to suit your taste.
• You can add almonds, roasted gram dal (Pottu kadalai/Chutney dal)
• You can also fry thin poha and add in this also you can add sev, kara sev, murukku etc too
• Keep the oil temperature, if for any reason you keep flame to slow for long time corn flakes will absorb oil while frying.
• Cornflakes takes very less oil to get fried, I fry good amount of cornflakes in 1 tbsp oil too but for that you need to use fresh ones, the older cornflakes get the more oil they take to fry.
• You can add 1/2 tsp of sugar, I don't add as raisins adds sweet taste.
• You can also add 1/2 tsp chaat masala.

Easy, crunchy cornflakes namkeen enjoy with tea or coffee.
