About this recipe
Sabudana is one of the most fond food during fasting as it is full of carbohydrates and gives energy instantly. As Navratri is on ,this easy and tasty fasting snack comes handy to munch during the day .
If you are planning to make Sabudana chivda for a fasting day then you need to add only chilli powder , rock salt , oil or ghee for deep frying and some dry fruits and nuts of your choices.
But if its for any regular day as a namkeen to munch for a evening coffee/ tea then you can include other ingredients like turmeric powder , hing , curry leaves , dry red chilli and garlic .

Ingredients:
To make Sabudana Chivda minimal ingredients are used :
- Nylon Sabudana ( Small Varient )
- Spices : Chilli powder and Rock Salt
- Dry Fruits and Nuts of your choice
- Oil for deep frying
Pro Tips and Variations
- There are 2 variants of Nylon Sabudana , small and large variant . I have used smaller variant to make this chivda. But you can use larger variant also.
- Cooking time of smaller variant is very less when compared with larger ones . If you are choosing larger variant then make sure to cook for 4 -5 minutes more as it takes more time to cook. Also check the doneness of the cooked sabudana by tasting it. If not cooked properly then centre of the sabudana will be hard.
- Frying : Make sure to fry on medium heat and stir it in between using a spoon or spatula . Use a strainer to deep fry sabudana. Also depending on the size of the strainer add small amount of sabudana pearls for frying because it crowds after frying.
- For Non Fasting Day : If not on fasting , you can also add cumin seeds , curry leaves , garlic , turmeric powder and more to suit your taste.
