Cornflakes Chivda is a light and flavorful Indian snack made from toasted cornflakes, nuts like peanuts and cashews, curry leaves, green chilies, and a mix of traditional spices. Typically seasoned with turmeric, red chili powder, and salt, this savory mix balances crunch and spice. It's a popular teatime snack, originating from Indian cuisine, and is especially enjoyed during festivals like Diwali. Nutritionally, Cornflakes Chivda is a source of quick energy due to the presence of carbohydrates in cornflakes and healthy fats from nuts. The addition of curry leaves provides antioxidants and vitamins. However, it is often fried or tempered in oil, which increases its calorie content, and may also be high in sodium depending on the seasoning. For a healthier version, you can prepare it using less oil and avoid deep-frying the cornflakes.
