Spicy Roasted Gram (તીખા દાળિયા)

When I was kid, my mother often prepared "Tikha Daliya (તીખા દાળિયા)" for me for noon snacks. "Tikha" means "spicy" and "Daliya" means "Roasted Gram" or we can say "Roasted Chana".

Here I am using roasted split gram (દાળિયાની દાળ) as it is a routine grocery item in most of the Indian homes.

Mix it well.

This spicy snack is good for gymmers also. Indian roasted gram is rich in carbohydrates. Ghee or vegetable oil serves as a lubricant in our body. Salt is just for the test whereas red chilly has many benefits if it is taken daily but in a viable quantity according to your tendancy.
