Prepare Kara Boondhi, Omapodi and Karasev. Set aside.
Fry off the poha/flattened rice and drain it well on paper towel.
Next fry off peanuts, roasted chana dal, cashews, almonds, curry leaves and crushed garlic pods (if using) in separate batches until golden brown and rest them on paper towel.
Add all the ingredients into a big mixing bowl. Add salt, turmeric powder, asafoetida and red chilli powder. Mix them really well until the spices have combined well.
Store in an airtight container and serve with coffee/tea.
