Subhan Phool Makhana 100g – Puffed Fox Nuts / Lotus Seeds

Phool makhana — fox nuts, lotus seeds, or gorgon nuts — are the puffed white seeds of the water lily, harvested by hand from ponds in Bihar and then roasted until they pop into light, airy spheres.

Subhan Phool Makhana 100g gives you a pantry staple that works as a snack straight from the pan and as an ingredient in both sweet and savoury Indian dishes.

What Is Makhana?

Makhana is one of the oldest snack foods in India. The seeds are dried, heated until they burst, and the white puff inside is what reaches the pack. Plain makhana tastes of very little on its own — its whole character comes from how you roast and season it.

Because it is grain-free, makhana is eaten during Navratri, Ekadashi, Shivratri and other vrat (fasting) days when cereals are avoided.

Perfect for Roasting & Snacking

Common ways to use phool makhana include:

• Roasted makhana — pan-roasted in ghee with salt and chilli
• Makhana kheer — simmered in milk with cardamom and sugar
• Makhana raita — stirred into yoghurt
• Vrat / fasting recipes — grain-free and traditional
• Makhana curry — in North Indian paneer and matar gravies
• Flavoured snacks — peri peri, chaat masala, cheese or caramel

How to Roast Makhana

Heat a teaspoon of ghee in a heavy pan on low heat. Add the makhana and stir constantly for 8–10 minutes until each one is crisp all the way through and snaps rather than bends. Season with salt, chilli powder, chaat masala or black pepper while still warm.

Patience matters more than heat here — makhana that is roasted too fast stays chewy in the middle. Let it cool completely before storing or it will soften again.

A Light Snack for Swedish Kitchens

For Indian and South Asian families in Stockholm and across Sweden, makhana is the snack to have in the cupboard for fasting days, for children, and for evenings when you want something crunchy that is not fried crisps.

For Swedish customers, roasted makhana is an easy introduction — mild, light, and very simple to make at home with nothing more than a pan and a little ghee or oil.

Cooking Suggestions

Roast in ghee before eating or adding to a dish — un-roasted makhana is soft and bland. Store the roasted nuts in an airtight jar; they pick up moisture from the air quickly and lose their crunch.
