Chevro, also known as chivda, is a popular savory snack from Indian cuisine, particularly cherished in Western India. This crunchy mix typically combines roasted or fried flattened rice (poha), nuts, seeds, lentils, and spices, resulting in a flavorful and textured treat. Ingredients often include peanuts, cashews, raisins, curry leaves, turmeric, and chilies, lending a balance of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors. Chevro is naturally gluten-free and provides a source of quick energy from carbohydrates, healthy fats from nuts, and micronutrients like iron and magnesium. Depending on preparation, it can be low in oil for a lighter version or deep-fried for a more indulgent treat. While it’s a delicious snack, moderation is key, as some versions may be high in sodium or saturated fats. Perfect for festive occasions or as a midday pick-me-up, this versatile snack is both a cultural staple and a delightful indulgence.
