Cereal no Chevdo
Every Diwali we make a lot of sweet and savory snacks and this is one of our favorite snacks. We have come across many different versions of Cereal Chevdo but my version has been a big hit with my family members. I get orders from my brother and cousins to make this before we meet so they can take containers of this chevdo to their house. My mother in law who lives in India always asks me to send this over to her overseas. My son prefers this over potato chips. The rice cereal is nice and light and after adding the curry leaves and other spices and nuts, it makes perfect snack. I promise if you have this once you will want to eat it again and again. Checkout my Instagram for an IGTV video for this Chevdo.
