Baked Red Poha Chivda/Mixture
A low-calorie and healthy snack, which is very easy to prepare. It requires less oil since it is baked. I have used red poha, which is more health benefits than white poha with which this mixture is usually made. Ideal for evening snacks when you are craving for something spicy along with a cup of tea or coffee.
Ingredients:
1. Red Poha, 1 cup.
2. Roasted channa dhal, 1/4 cup.
3. Raw peanuts, 1/4 cup.
4. Mustard seeds, 1/2 teaspoon.
5. Curry leaves, a sprig.
6. Asafetida, a pinch.
7. Salt, as per taste.
8. Coconut powder, 1 tablespoon, (optional).
9. Chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon.
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Meanwhile heat a pan with a tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds and let it splutter. Turn off the stove and add the curry leaves, chili powder, and asafetida. Mix this along with the poha and peanuts and mix everything well with the required salt. Spread this mixture on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until the poha is crisp. Once the mixture is cooled down, add the roasted channa dhal, mix well and serve.
Cooking and trying out new recipes is my passion. I come from a family with where type 2 diabetes is very common and we have lost many loved one due to complications of this disease. This blog is my humble attempt to create low-carb and healthy dishes and well as healthy lifestyle tips suitable for diabetics. This blog is to prove that healthy, primarily diabetic-friendly foods, can be tasty as well.
