Spiced puffed rice (Churmure upkari)

Ingredients:
5-6 cups puffed rice(churmuro/chirmuri)
1 tea spn chili powder
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup finely chopped tomato
1/4 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup grated cucumber(optional)
1/4 cup fresh/frozen coconut
1/4 cup grated raw mango(optional)
1 tbl spn chopped coriander leaves
1 tbl spn coconut oil
1/4 cup roasted peanuts
Salt

Method:
Heat a little oil and add chili powder. Take off from heat, add puffed rice and mix well.
(This is kept ready by the vendors). I kept it on the switched off,
but hot stove for sometime to make the puffed rice very crisp.
While serving, add carrots, cucumbers, onions, tomatoes, coconut, mango, coriander leaves, salt and mix well.
Top it with coconut oil and mix. Do not keep it for long after mixing all the vegetables,
the puffed rice should be very crispy for ultimate taste.
