Aval Mixture| South Indian Mixture | Diwali Recipes


I made this mixture along with namak para and omapodi.  Mixture or as it's mostly call South Indian mixture is one versatile recipe, a mixture (combination) of different things which makes it a delicious tea time or festival recipe.  You can add anything of your choice like sev, murukku, boondi, corn flakes.  I make corn flakes mixture so I don’t add that with this recipe.  I normally like to add raisins if you don’t like then you can skip that.  If you have ompodi or sev in hand then this mixture can be done in jiffy or you can buy sev and do rest of things at home, its still a great idea.  Try and everyone will love this mixture, it also hits with kids as it’s not spicy.
