About Chana jor chapta

Chana Jor Chapta is a popular Indian snack made from flattened and spiced black chickpeas. Originating from Indian street food culture, these chickpeas are roasted and seasoned with tangy spices, lemon juice, and chopped onions, making it a flavorful and crunchy treat. Rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins, it supports digestion and provides sustained energy. However, its sodium content may be high depending on preparation, which could be a concern for those managing their salt intake. Often served as a light snack or topping for salads, Chana Jor Chapta is both satisfying and versatile. While traditionally considered a healthier alternative to fried snacks, moderation is key, especially for pre-packaged versions that may include added oils or preservatives. For an even healthier option, homemade varieties allow for better control of ingredients and seasoning.
