Vegetarian Snack Recipes

Who doesn’t like a little chatpatah to go with their chai on cold evenings? The problem with this, however, is that many chatpatah snacks are deep fried in oil, making them harmful for health.

But what if we showed you how prepare healthy snacks? Traditional savouries like samosas and mathris can be made health-friendly with a few minor modifications as shown below. Try these healthy, finger-licking eats compiled by our senior nutritionists Alpa Momaya and Sumita Thomas for the New Indian Express and never feel deprived again!

Stuffing Preparation:

  • Heat the oil in a pan and add cumin seeds.
  • When the seeds start to crackle, add the potatoes and sauté for 2 minutes.

  • Sauté for another 2 minutes.
  • Let it cool for a few minutes.
  • Divide the stuffing into 8 equal portions and keep it aside.

Method:
