Phool Makhana 200g

Description

Phool Makhana refers to the puffed lotus seeds of the Euryale ferox plant. These popped seeds are crisp, airy and white with a mildly sweet flavor. Also called foxnuts or lotus puffs, phool makhana is a popular Indian snack with nutritional and medicinal benefits. These gluten-free seeds are low in calories yet packed with proteins, minerals and antioxidants that improve digestion, boost fertility and aid sleep. In Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, makhana is used to address inflammation, diarrhoea and kidney issues. Phool makhana can be eaten as a snack, added to desserts or curries. When lightly roasted or caramelized with spices, it gets a delicious, crunchy coating around the puffed seeds. Whether plain or flavored, phool makhana makes for a healthy alternative to fried snacks.
