Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups corn flakes
1 cup crisp rice cereal
1 cup puffed corn cereal
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 cup mixed nuts
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp mango powder ( amchur)

Directions:

Combine the cereals and set aside.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds to the hot oil and cover with a lid to avoid splattering. Fry until the mustard seeds stop popping, a few seconds.
Reduce heat to low. Add the cereal mix and stir well.
Add the nuts, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper and mango powder. Roast, stirring occasionally for 5 to 7. I actually roast a bit longer, but you have to be very careful you don't burn the nuts or they'll taste bitter. A little brown or tan is ok.
Remove from the heat and cool completely.
Store in an airtight container.
