I also like to add a couple of crushed garlic cloves to impart a wonderful garlic flavor. And again, all the ingredients need to be deep fried before combining them together.
How To Make Indian Spicy Mixture
To bring in different textures, this recipe has different elements. And you will need two special equipments to make this mixture – sev or noodles and boondhi or chickpea flour drops. One is a noodle press called idiyappam or string hopper maker that’s easily available from Indian grocery stores. The other equipment is a slotted spoon to make the boondhis. Let’s start with sev or chickpea flour noodles recipe for Indian spicy mixture. First mix together chickpea flour (besan), rice flour, ground turmeric, red chili powder, asafetida and a pinch of salt. Add enough water and knead to a smooth dough. You will need to place this dough in the string hopper maker and pipe the noodles into hot oil. Next up, the boondhis. It’s very similar to the boondhis you make for ladoos. The only difference is that you don’t need to soak them in sugar syrup. We are talking about savory boondhis here. You will need to make a thick batter consisting of chickpea flour (besan), rice flour, ground turmeric, red chili powder and asafetida. Pass this mixture through a slotted spoon and into hot oil to make chickpea flour drops or boondhis. Apart from sev and boondhis, you will also need to deep fry some curry leaves. Chana dal and garlic are optional ingredients, however, they add more flavor and texture to this Indian spicy mixture.
