Snack Attack: Roasting!
Traditional Indian snacks often involve deep-frying. But, roasting is a healthier cooking method. Roasted snacks preserve more nutrients and reduce oil
intake. This shift aligns with growing health awareness in India, making these snacks ideal for any occasion.
Roasted Chana: Powerhouse
Roasted chana, or chickpeas, is a simple yet satisfying snack. It's high in protein and fiber, essential for managing weight and keeping you full. Easy to find in local markets, it’s a quick, healthy snack, perfect for on-the-go munching during your daily commute.
Spiced Makhana Delights
Makhana, or lotus seeds, are roasted with Indian spices. These light and crunchy seeds are a good source of antioxidants. Makhana is often consumed during festivals and religious events, making it a culturally relevant and healthy snack choice.
Bajra Bites: Nutritious
Bajra, or pearl millet, when roasted, creates a wholesome snack. Rich in fiber and minerals, it supports digestion. Bajra's popularity in rural India makes it a traditional, yet healthy, choice, perfect for satisfying hunger pangs.
Roasted Murmura Magic
Murmura, or puffed rice, offers a light, airy texture. Roasting it with spices creates a low-calorie treat that is easily customizable. This snack has found favor in various parts of India, particularly in the form of bhel puri.
