Mixture is nothing but a mix of deep fried snacks like Boondi, Omapodi, Karasev along with Peanuts, cashews, Poha. This is the simple South Indian Mixture, to this You can also add Maida Biscuits, fried Chana Dal and for a sweet touch raisins, sugar or sweet boondi also added. Today am sharing the simple & Basic South Indian Style Mixture / Madras Mixture. This is popularly made during Diwali time. We too make this mixture in a tall bucket to distribute it to our relatives, friends and neighbors on Diwali day. Mixture is one of my favorite childhood snack. More than a snack i love this mixture as a side dish. I can even have Thanni sadham(cooked rice with water n salt) with some mixture. I love the sweet biscuits/Maida biscuits in mixture. So i reserved 1/4 cup mainly to add in my mixture :)
