Pumpkin Seeds Mixture

Mixture is a snack which consists of a mixture of two or more crispy ingredients. Usually mixture has deep fried ingredients. I tried to cut down oil and make it nutritious. I prepared this delicious mixture today. All the ingredients are roasted with a little oil(except the corn flakes). As pumpkin seeds are so nutritious, you can relish this mixture without guilt. I am sending this to CWS-Pumpkin Seeds started by Priya and guest hosted here this month.

Pumpkin Seeds-100gm
Rice Flakes / Aval-50gm
Peanut-50gm
Corn Flakes-50gm
Olive Oil-1tsp
Refined oil-for deep frying corn flakes
Salt-to taste

1. In a pan add pumpkin seeds and 1/2tsp olive oil.
2. Roast the seeds on medium flame until it starts to puff up and pop.
3. Transfer it to a wide bowl.
4. Add rice flakes and 1/4tsp olive oil and roast it till it puffs up.
5. Add it to the roasted pumpkin seeds.
6. Add 1/4tsp olive oil and peanuts and roast them till golden brown.
7. Add this to the bowl.
8. Heat oil and fry corn flakes(not the branded variety) till golden in colour.
