If you are a mixture or chivda lover like me, and looking for more mixture recipes, then do check my avalakki or thin poha mixture, avarekalu mixture, thin sev mixture recipe, congress kadlekai and hurigalu recipes.
I have not deep fried the cornflakes in this recipe. Deep frying the corn flakes makes it very light and more tasty. But to make it more healthy, I have just roasted it for few minutes under low flame.
This cornflakes mixture or chivda is very tasty and crispy. It stays crispy for a month, if stored in an air tight container. I have listed the spices as per my taste, which you can adjust as per your taste. If you like chat masala, you can add 1/2 tsp of chat masala too.
