Manchurian Khakhra is a delightful and innovative snack that marries the crispy texture of traditional Indian khakhra with the savory, tangy flavors of Manchurian cuisine, all while adhering to Jain dietary practices. This unique snack is crafted without preservatives, artificial food colors, and importantly, without onion or garlic, making it suitable for those who follow a Jain lifestyle or prefer a more subtle flavor profile.
The base of Manchurian Khakhra is made from wholesome whole wheat flour, which is mixed into a smooth dough. This dough is seasoned with a blend of natural spices that capture the essence of Manchurian flavors without using onions or garlic. Instead, the khakhra is flavored with finely chopped green chilies for a mild heat, and a touch of soy sauce and vinegar to deliver the characteristic tangy and umami notes.
In the preparation process, the dough is rolled out into thin, round discs and cooked on a hot griddle until they are golden brown and crispy. This traditional cooking method ensures that each piece of khakhra maintains its crunch while allowing the natural flavors to shine through, without the need for additional oils or artificial additives.
Manchurian Khakhra is a versatile snack that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of accompaniments, such as yogurt, chutneys, or pickles. Its unique flavor combination and adherence to Jain dietary guidelines make it a satisfying and health-conscious choice for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious, crunchy snack. This khakhra offers a perfect blend of tradition and innovation, crafted with care to meet both flavor and dietary preferences.
