About Fried chana

Fried Chana, also known as fried chickpeas, is a popular snack rooted in South Asian cuisine. Made from dried chickpeas, this dish combines a satisfying crunch with bold, savory flavors. The chickpeas are traditionally soaked, dried, and fried, then seasoned with spices like chili powder, turmeric, and cumin, delivering a flavorful and aromatic bite. Rich in protein, fiber, and essential minerals like iron and magnesium, Fried Chana offers a nutritious base that supports digestion and muscle health. However, the frying process adds extra fat and calories, which may not align with a low-fat diet. Some variations use baked or air-fried chickpeas as a healthier alternative that retains the crispy texture. Commonly enjoyed as a standalone snack or paired with beverages, Fried Chana is a flavorful way to incorporate plant-based protein into your meals while being mindful of portion sizes and fat content.
