Mandakki ..Chat ( Puri -Chat)

Mandakki/Puri/Puffed Rice is used for chat and different chat varieties can be prepared using this puffed rice.

Here I have tried a chat which is normally done in our homes in Udupi and around. It is simple and mundakki/mandakki uppugari as it is called.
Lets see the recipe now :
Things Needed :
Mandakki/Puffed Rice  : 2 cups.
Onions : 2 ( Medium sized)
Coconut : 2 Table spoons ( fresh and grated )
Rasam Powder/Sambar Powder : 1 Teaspoon
Green chilly : 1 
Salt : to taste
Coconut Oil : 2 to 3 Tea spoons.
Groundnut : 2 Tablespoons (Dry roasted) (Optional).

Method :
1. Cut onions in to small pieces and keep it aside. Grate coconut and keep it aside. 

2. Put cut onions, green chilly and grated coconut in a big bowl. 
3. Add rasam powder and very little salt. (Some time puffed rice do contain salt).
4. Mix all the ingredients nicely.
5. Add ready puffed rice and mix it again.

6. Add a spoon of coconut oil and mix it nicely and serve with little roasted groundnuts on the top.

7. It should be served immediately or it might turn as soft.
Note :
Adding groundnuts on the top before serving mandakki/mundakki is optional. Adding coconut oil is optional. You can add cut tomatoes, grated carrots along with onions. Adding green chilly is optional. Adding any brand of rasam/sambar powder is optional. ( I have used home made rasam powder).
Time : 10 Minutes 
Serves 2 to 3
I have use Ready Puffed rice prepared at home. (Added little corn flakes and groundnuts)
