ingredients
- 354.88 ml corn flakes
- 236.59 ml crisp rice cereal
- 236.59 ml puffed corn cereal
- 14.79 ml vegetable oil
- 1.23 ml mustard seeds
- 118.29 ml mixed nuts
- 0.61 ml cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- 1.23 ml salt
- 1.23 ml black pepper
- 1.23 ml mango powder (amchur)
directions
- Combine the cereals and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds to the hot oil and cover with a lid to avoid splattering. Fry until the mustard seeds stop popping, a few seconds.
- Reduce heat to low. Add the cereal mix and stir well.
- Add the nuts, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper and mango powder. Roast, stirring occasionally for 5 to 7. I actually roast a bit longer, but you have to be very careful you don't burn the nuts or they'll taste bitter. A little brown or tan is ok.
- Remove from the heat and cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container.
