About Masala makhana

Masala Makhana, also known as spiced foxnuts or lotus seeds, is a nutritious snack originating from Indian cuisine. Made by roasting puffed foxnuts with a blend of spices such as turmeric, cumin, chili powder, and salt, this savory snack is light yet flavorful. It is naturally gluten-free, low in calories, and a rich source of protein, making it an excellent choice for weight management and maintaining energy levels. Masala Makhana is also packed with antioxidants, which can support cell health and combat aging, along with essential nutrients like magnesium, potassium, and calcium for bone and heart health. Additionally, the roasted preparation minimizes unhealthy fats, offering a guilt-free alternative to fried snacks. However, moderation is key, as excessive salt or spicing could impact dietary goals. Perfect for mid-day munching or evening cravings, Masala Makhana is a wholesome and satisfying addition to a balanced diet.
