What it is

Chiwda is what Laxminarayan is known for; the family has made it in Pune since 1945. This is their rice flakes chiwda: thin poha with peanut oil, peanuts, cashews, raisins, a little sugar, turmeric and red chilli.

Light and crisp, salty with small sweet bursts from the raisins, and ready to eat from the packet. It is a snack, not raw poha for cooking. Choosing between chiwdas? Rice Flakes for light and classic; Cornflakes Chiwda for a bigger crunch; Dry Bhel for building your own. The peanuts and cashews sink to the bottom, so give the packet a shake before pouring.

Tip: Keep a small steel dabba of it next to the kettle. It goes with every cup of tea you make.

Goes well with: Laxminarayan Bakarwadi, Laxminarayan Besan Laddu, Taj Mahal Tea
