Recipe Notes

I dry roast all the ingredients separately and then mix them in the proportion specified. I do not add any salt or top it with anything. I simply have them as is in their natural roasted form.

During travel, I simply make small paper bag packs of these and carry it. I tend to have a glass of plain buttermilk with this. In case there is no butter milk, I replace it with half a cup of curd; basically, any probiotic accompaniment.
