Muddhi Chatpata



During the lockdown ,to handle cravings for snacks is  very tedious ! 

Every evening the children want a different item .As a mother,I
need to think about their oil intake,carb intake and so on..

I try to design a snack item which is tasty , healthy and nutritious :)

One such item is puffed rice chaat (muddhi ). In my state of Odisha,
this is a very popular evening snack .It is liked by both old and the
young at the same time. I have designed this recipe keeping in my
mind the taste of my sons....They don't like tomatoes, whereas
tomato is an essential ingredients in all puffed rice items .

Here goes the recipe-

Lemon-1/2 lemon juice
Mustard oil-1Tab spoon
Salt-To taste
Chat Masala-To taste
Chilli powder-To taste
Coconut -1/2 cup (grated )
Sev/bhujia- 1 glass

Method-
