• Product Overview: Raw Makhana, also known as fox nuts or lotus seeds (phool makhana), are the puffed, white seeds of the lotus plant. Our makhana is raw and unsalted, giving you a clean, versatile ingredient to roast, fry or cook according to your taste. It is light, crunchy and widely loved as a snack and in fasting foods.

• Ingredients: Makhana (Fox Nuts Raw Unsalted).

• Flavour & Aroma: Makhana has a mild, neutral, slightly nutty flavour and a soft, airy texture that turns crisp when roasted. Because it is plain and unsalted, it takes on the taste of whatever you cook it with, whether sweet, spicy or tangy.

• Best Uses & Recipe Ideas:
◦ Roasted snack: dry roast or saute in ghee with salt, pepper or chaat masala for a light, crunchy snack.
◦ Makhana kheer: simmer in milk with cardamom and sugar for a creamy dessert, popular during festivals and fasts.
◦ Flavoured makhana: toss with peri-peri, cheese, pudina or caramel for ready-to-eat flavoured snacks.
◦ Curries: add to sabzis such as makhana matar or makhana paneer for a creamy bite.
◦ Fasting foods: widely eaten during Navratri and other vrats.

• Traditional Use & Wellness Note: Makhana is a popular light snack in Indian homes and is often enjoyed during fasting days and festivals. It is a food product enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. People with allergies or dietary restrictions should check with a doctor.

• Cooking Tips: Dry roast on a low flame for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until crisp and a piece snaps easily. Season after roasting while still warm so that spices stick. Store roasted makhana airtight, as it softens quickly in humid weather.

• Quality & Purity: Raw Makhana (Fox Nuts) is carefully selected, cleaned and packed so that you receive light, crunchy and uniformly sized puffs. It is raw and unsalted, with no added flavours, colours or preservatives, so you decide exactly how to season it.

• Storage & Shelf Life: Store Raw Makhana (Fox Nuts) in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Humidity makes makhana soft and chewy, so always close the pack tightly after use. If it softens, a few minutes of dry roasting will bring back the crunch.

• Kitchen Handy Tip: Since it is sold raw, always roast, fry or cook makhana before eating, and season it to your liking once it is warm and crisp.

• Dietary Suitability: Plant-based and sold without any added salt, sugar, colours or flavours, Raw Makhana (Fox Nuts) is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. It is a light ingredient that you can season and cook exactly the way your family prefers.

• Usage Guide: one to two handfuls make a generous single serving as a snack, while about a cup is enough for a kheer serving four. Makhana puffs lightly during roasting, so measure it before cooking.

• Bulk & Gifting: a good choice for stocking up for fasting seasons and festivals, for cafes and snack makers who want to create their own flavours, and for dry-fruit style gift boxes.
