Bansiram Namkeen Bikaneri Sev (375 g) & Faradi Chiwda Tikha (350 g)

Originating from Bikaner, a city in the northwestern state of Rajasthan, Bikaneri Sev is made primarily from  gram flour (besan) along with spices like turmeric, cumin, ajwain (carom seeds), and sometimes additional flavors such as garlic or chili. The dough is prepared by mixing gram flour with water and spices to form a smooth consistency. The dough is then passed through a Sev maker, which has different plates to create thin strands or noodles of varying thickness. These strands are deep-fried until crispy, resulting in a crunchy and savory snack.

Farali Chiwda (Tikha) is a spicy variation of the traditional fasting snack, enjoyed especially during vrat (fasting) periods like Navratri. Farali Chiwda Tikha is a crispy and flavorful mix made with thin potato sticks (farali batata lachha), crunchy peanuts, and roasted coconut slices. Light and crunchy, it's a perfect snack to energize during fasting, with its spicy punch making it a favorite for those who enjoy bold flavors.
