We can prepare this at home too.Chopped onions,chopped  tomatoes, grated carrots ,coriander leaves, roasted pea nuts will be added to puffed rice along with red chilly powder and coconut oil. Raw coconut oil really gives a special touch to this churmuri.....

1 medium tomato, finely chopped
1/2 small carrot, peeled and grated

How To Prepare?
  • Dry roast the groundnuts and keep it aside.

  • Now add coconut oil, lime juice, red chilly powder and salt to it and mix really well.
  • Now add crisp puffed rice and roasted peanuts .Mix it well again so that puffed rice is coated with spice mixture. Serve it immediately and Enjoy !!
                 


Notes/Alternative:
