POHE CHIVDA

Ingredients:
250 gm pohe, 3 tblsp oil, 2 tsp mustard seeds, 2 tsp Cumin seeds, 12-15 curry leaves, 1 tsp Hing (Asafoetida), 2 tsp Turmeric powder, 2-3 tsp chivda masala, 1 cup roasted fried peanuts, 2tsp chopped green chili, 1cup fried Dalia (roasted split chickpea), 1cup pieces of fried coconut, 2 tsp sugar, 10-12 dry mint leaves, salt to taste and 2 tsp lemon juice.

1. Heat the oil in a large Kadai.
2. Fry one by one the coconut pieces, roasted peanuts and dal in it.
3. Add it on the pohe.
4. Add grounded sugar to the above mixture.
5. Fry curry leaves and add on the pohe.
6. Fry Mint leaves add and over the pohe
7. Fry green chilies and add over the pohe.
