Sabudana Chivda Recipe | Sabudana Namkeen Recipe

Sabudana Chivda Recipe / Sabudana Namkeen Recipe with step by step pics, a tasty and crunchy Navratri fasting snack. I suggest using the nylon, large variety of sago/tapioca pearls, as the regular ones won’t suit for this snack. But always ensure the sago is fried properly and it takes 5 to 6 minutes to get the perfect texture. It stays good for 10 days when stored in an airtight container, as sago has a high source of carbohydrates, it gives a lot of energy during the fasting time.

Instructions

 

• First, measure and keep all the ingredients ready. Heat oil in a pan, place a metal strainer, add the cashews, fry till golden colour and keep aside.
• In the same oil, add the raisins and fry till it fluffs up. Then add the peanuts and fry till it changes in colour slightly and turns crispy.
• Now, add 1 or 2 tbsp of sago pearls, fry till it pops/fluffs up nicely and drain it in a kitchen towel. Always fry in batches, don't crowd the oil. Fry it in medium flame, it takes about 5 to 6 minutes. Just bite 1 sago pearl and check whether it is fried in the centre. Do the same with the remaining sago pearls.
• To a wide plate, add the fried sago, cashew, raisins and peanuts. Then add the turmeric powder, chilli powder, required salt and powdered sugar.
• Do the mixing when the fried items are warm itself, so the turmeric and chilli powder sticks to the sago. Store it in a clean and airtight container.

Notes

Tips for Sabudana Namkeen Recipe

1. Use nylon variety - big size sago pearls only, regular small sago pearls wont work for this Sabudana Chivda Recipe.
2. Even 1/4 cup of fried gram can also be used for more taste.
3.  I used a metal strainer to fry, so it will be easy to collect all the fried items but you can fry it in oil directly too.
4. Always fry the sago pearls (1 or 2 tbsp at a time) in batches only. Don't crowd the oil, otherwise it won't get fried properly.
5. Check whether the sago pearls is fried properly, just bite 1 sago and ensure it is fried in the centre.
6. Instead of chilli powder, 1 tsp of pepper powder or 2 to 3 green chilli can be fried in oil and added to the chivda.
7. Adjust chilli powder as per spiciness required for this Sabudana Chivda Recipe.
8. For more flavour, few curry leaves can be fried in the oil and added to the namkeen.
9. For a pure white Sabudana chivda recipe, skip turmeric, chilli powder and add fried green chilli.
10. If preparing for vrat or fasting, use rock salt.
11. If preferred 2 tsp of sugar can be added, which enhances the taste of the chivda.
