Bread Chivda is a quick and flavorful snack rooted in Indian cuisine, often crafted from leftover bread. To prepare it, bread slices are typically torn into bite-sized pieces and sautéed with spices like turmeric, chili powder, mustard seeds, and curry leaves. Additional ingredients such as peanuts, roasted chickpeas, and chopped onions lend texture and taste. Its origins lie in minimizing food waste and creating a budget-friendly dish. Bread Chivda can be a source of carbohydrates, complemented by healthy fats and protein from peanuts and chickpeas. Spices used in its preparation, like turmeric, provide anti-inflammatory benefits. However, due to frying and possible added oil, it may contain higher levels of fat and calories. Opting for whole-grain bread and minimizing oil can make it a lighter and more nutrient-rich snack suitable for an occasional treat or meal accompaniment.
