In winter, especially when it rains, its nice to enjoy some chiwda with a cup of hot chai or tea. I had one whole packet of murmura lying with me for more than a month. So prepared this murmura chiwda to enjoy as a snack with our evening tea.
Apart from the fact that it needs more oil, it is quite a healthy option for snacks esp in winters. It is loaded with energy in the form of peanuts, grams, nuts , etc. And the best part is that it is just so Yummm...
It is so easy to prepare that you dont have to wait for Diwali to enjoy this savoury. Prepare in bulk and stack it in a air tight container and just enjoy it with your chai for a month.
