About Poha chivda

Poha Chivda is a traditional Indian snack made from flattened rice (poha) that is lightly toasted and mixed with an array of flavorful ingredients such as roasted peanuts, dried coconut slices, curry leaves, green chilies, turmeric, and spices. Hailing from Indian cuisine, it is a crispy, savory treat often enjoyed with tea or as a quick snack. Nutritionally, Poha Chivda is low in fat and provides a source of carbohydrates, making it a relatively light snack compared to fried alternatives. The inclusion of peanuts adds healthy fats and protein, while curry leaves and turmeric contribute antioxidants. However, its sodium content may vary depending on the seasoning or added salt, and it may not be as filling as whole-grain options. For those seeking a healthier version, it can be prepared with minimal oil and reduced salt, retaining its delicious crunch and classic flavors.
