Navadhanya Mixture is a popular South Indian snack made from a mixture of nine different types of grains and lentils.
The nine grains and lentils used in the mixture are typically chickpeas, green gram, black gram, horse gram, rice, corn, peanuts, fried gram, and poha (flattened rice).
The grains and lentils are roasted and mixed with spices like cumin, coriander, and chili powder, as well as curry leaves and fried nuts for flavor.
Navadhanya Mixture has a crunchy texture and a savory flavor, and is often served as a standalone snack or as a side dish with tea or coffee.
It is a popular snack in South India, especially in Tamil Nadu, and is often served during festivals or special occasions. Navadhanya Mixture is also a healthy snack option as it is high in protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients.
