Crunchy and Yummy


The management mantra of "Innovate or Die" seems to have pervaded in all businesses including food, which today witnesses interesting variations and product introductions virtually everyday. On a recent visit to Ahmedabad, I was told by a friend to visit the popular store Induben khakhrawalla in Meethakali Village, Ahmedabad and was amazed to see the mind-bloggling varieties of khakhras in flavours as varied as manchurian, pani puri, pav bhaji etc. Innovation can be taken a step further for making khakhras an even more interesting snack and substantial snack in just a couple of minutes. Some ideas:

1. Khakhra broken into quarters and topped up with chopped boiled potato, onion and tamarind chutney with bhel sev sprinkled on the top.

2. Khakhra topped with finely chopped onion, tomato, green chillies and coriander leaves

3. Khakhra topped with paneer or egg bhurji

4. Apply a layer of cheese spread on the khakhra sprinkle finely chopped spring onion and chilli flakes and put in the grill for a minute or two and serve hot.

5. Khakhra topped with cooked moong, kabuli channa or chowli and green chutney

6. Pav Bhaji bhaji served on Khakhra

The next time you are in a mood for a quick snack try one of my variations on khakhras
