About Farsan

Farsan is a flavorful assortment of savory snacks originating from Indian cuisine, particularly popular in the western regions like Gujarat and Maharashtra. This category of snacks includes crunchy, fried items such as sev, chakli, bhajia, and kachori, often made from gram flour, rice flour, lentils, and a blend of spices. Farsan is typically enjoyed as a side dish, snack, or even as a topping in dishes like poha and bhel puri. While packed with taste and texture, farsan is generally high in calories and fat due to deep frying. It can also be rich in carbohydrates and sodium, which may not suit individuals on restricted diets. Opting for baked or air-fried farsan or versions made with whole grains can offer a lighter alternative. Always enjoy in moderation as part of a balanced diet to savor its deliciousness without compromising health.
