Poha Chewda

I tried it once and it turned out great. And now I have every reason to make it over and over. Hope you think the same. :)

You need:

1 tbsp - vegetable oil

1 tsp - mustard seeds

1 tsp turmeric powder

Few slices of chopra/ dried coconut

1-2 cups of your choice (groundnuts, cashewnuts and raisins taste best)

Few curry leaves

2 green chillies chopped

Chat masala

3 cups fine/medium poha

salt to taste

1/2 cup sugar

Heat oil in a pan over medium fire. Add mustard seeds. Once they splutter and the sound stops, add turmeric powder, curry leaves, green chillies and nuts (except raisins) and coconut and fry them till the chillies become crisp. Now add the salt and chat masala, poha and mix well. Fry the ingredients and toss them regularly till the poha becomes crisp. Finally add the raisins. Turn off the stove. Wait for the chewda to cool, add the sugar and mix one last time.
