Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add amaranth seeds to the pan and roast for 3-4 minutes until they turn golden brown and start popping. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted amaranth seeds, roasted peanuts, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well.
