Is Masala Khakra Healthy?

Absolutely! Masala khakra's key ingredient, besan, is a good source of fibre and essential minerals. The addition of spices like haldi, jeera, and kasuri methi further enhances its nutritional profile. While the recipe calls for oil, you can reduce the quantity to make it healthier.

How To Ensure Masala Khakra Turns Out Crispy?

Masala khakra tastes good only when it's perfectly crispy. To achieve this, ensure you use a sufficient amount of oil while cooking on the tawa and heat it evenly. Avoid rushing the cooking process, or it'll be soft in texture.

How To Store Masala Khakra?

Store masala khakra in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, away from sunlight. This way, it can last for up to three weeks.

How To Make Masala Khakra At Home | Masala Khakra Recipe

Start by adding besan, haldi, Kashmiri red chilli powder, chili flakes, roasted jeera, salt, hing, kasuri methi and oil to a large bowl. Mix well to combine everything. Then, knead atta as you normally would to form a smooth dough. Make small balls, roll them out, and fill with the prepared besan filling, sealing all edges tightly. Roll it out again and cook on a hot tawa for about 30-40 seconds on each side. Press with a roti presser, drizzle some oil, and cook until golden brown on both sides. Let it cool to room temperature, and your crispy masala khakra is ready!
