Masala shakarpara | Namkeen shakarpara | spicy shakarpali | tikhat shakarpali

A simple and easy savory snack recipe made with wheat flour and regular spices. there are many ways of making shakarpara or shankarpali but in this recipe post, I share masala or savory versions made with wheat flour instead of plain flour. It is an all-time favorite chatpata, a crunchy snack that is loved by all age groups. It also has a very long shelf life and can store in an airtight container for months.

I share a perfect ingredient ratio and a few no-fail tips to help you to make perfect namkeen or masala shakarpara on the first attempt.

The key to making crispy masala shakarpara at home are:
  • Hot Oil should be perfectly incorporated into flour, so flour should have a crumbly texture and hold shape between hands
  • Roll the shakarpara roti should be slightly thinner than a normal paratha. This would help in attaining a crisp brittle texture.
  • you can shape these biscuits to any desired shape and there isnโ€™t any hard and fast rule for it. as a matter of fact, having square-shaped biscuits is a much easier and quicker option.
  • At the time of frying add shakarpara into hot oil, when it is slightly puffed up then lower the flame to medium and fry it till becomes crispy and golden brown on both the sides
  • Once deep-fried, immediately sprinkle masala and mix well in it, so masala easily sticks with it.
  • Store masala shakarpara in an airtight container for longer shelf life.
