Makhana Pudina is a refreshing and flavorful snack made with roasted fox nuts (makhana) and a combination of mint (pudina) and spices. Makhana, also known as lotus seeds, is a popular snack in India, known for its crunchy texture and light, nutty flavor. In this dish, the makhana is typically roasted until crispy, then tossed with a fragrant mint powder or a fresh mint chutney, along with seasonings like black salt, cumin powder, and sometimes a dash of lemon juice for a tangy kick.

This snack is not only delicious but also healthy, as makhana is low in calories, high in fiber, and rich in antioxidants. The addition of mint provides a cooling and refreshing taste, making it an ideal snack for hot days or as a light evening snack. Makhana Pudina is commonly enjoyed during fasting periods in India but can also be served as a wholesome snack any time of the day.
