About Indian chivada
Chivada, also known as "chiwda" or "namkeen mix," is a popular Indian snack originating from the vibrant cuisine of the subcontinent. It's a crunchy mix typically made of flattened rice (poha), roasted peanuts, dry fruits, gram flour sev, and various spices. Ingredients like curry leaves and green chilies add depth, while a light tempering with oil binds the flavors together. Chivada is versatile, offering a balance of savory and mildly sweet notes. While its roasted components, peanuts, and poha contribute beneficial nutrients like protein and fiber, it can be calorie-dense due to frying and added oil. Moderation is key to enjoying this snack, as excessive salt content may pose concerns for heart health. Ideal for festive occasions or tea-time munching, Chivada reflects the rich Indian tradition of combining diverse textures and flavors in one satisfying bite.
