Bombay Mix Salad Looking for a quick ‘Desi’ substitute for ‘Popcorn’  to cuddle up with on the couch and watch a movie?  Or perhaps a quick entertainer?  Try this fresh, tangy and crunchy Bombay Mixture Salad. This crisp salad never lasts long and often you will be asked to make some more. And of course, it’s healthier than just serving a bag of Bombay mix by itself!! Bombay Mixture is also known as (Bombay Mix, Bhuja mix, Punjabi mix Or Mixture) is quite varied. The fried/toasted snack comes spicy, regular and sweet, sometimes with toasted lentils, green peas or nuts. I prefer the one with peanuts and green/brown small lentils and not too spicy. Since the Salad contains chopped tomato etc.. it must be mixed only immediately prior to serving. This retains the crunchiness. It’s also good to remember that the thicker ‘sev’ will stay crunchier, longer. I would avoid the superfine variety, as it absorbs moisture too quickly.  Use whichever type (Punjabi, Bombay, South Indian …)  you can find except the sweet variety.

Bombay Mix Salad in my memories: This recipe is a simple one , yet a special one. It is the first food item, that I made for my husband, after we were married. After our flight from India to Singapore, I was excited to see our new home, for the first time. I loved our small rented apartment, which we would only live in for the next 3 months. After a nap, we woke up and were hungry. I went through the snacks we bought back from India, and there was some Bombay Mixture. So I made tea and thought we would have this along with it. When he mentioned he was quite hungry, I remembered making this salad a few times, when I got hungry in the middle of studying for exams. So chopped the onion, tomato etc that were in the fridge and served this salad with the tea. He loved it! So that’s the first thing I made for my husband!
