Thatai is a traditional South Indian savory snack, often enjoyed during festivals or as a tea-time treat. Made primarily with rice flour and urad dal flour, it is seasoned with spices like chili powder, asafoetida, and curry leaves, and garnished with sesame seeds. The dough is flattened into crisp discs and deep-fried to golden perfection, giving Thatai its signature crunchy texture. Rich in carbohydrates and gluten-free due to the use of rice flour, it provides quick energy but should be consumed in moderation due to its high-fat content from frying. The sesame seeds contribute calcium and healthy fats, while curry leaves offer antioxidants. Though flavorful and satisfying, Thatai is best enjoyed occasionally, as part of a balanced diet.
