Mixture is spicy snack made with kara boondi, ompodi and few other ingredients to enhance its taste. Mixture can be prepared for festival or as tea time snack. So whenever I make kara boondi and ompodi at home I make sure to retain some quantity of both to prepare this mixture. Mixture is very easy to make so if you have kara boondi and ompodi ready at home, and moreover homemade ones are much tastier and healthier. Everyone prepares mixture in different ways, and this is the way my mom used to prepare it and I have relished the same from my childhood. So lets get to the making!
