There’s something timeless about Indian snacks — the comforting crunch of a Shakkar Para, the savoury burst of Moong Jor, the classic saltiness of Namak Para, or the earthy goodness of Methi Sticks. These flavours are part of our everyday lives, often served with chai or shared during festive moments.
But traditionally, these beloved snacks are deep-fried, which comes with a cost — extra oil, heavy digestion, and health compromises.
What if you could enjoy all your favourites without the oil-soaked guilt?
At The Roasted Alternative, we have reimagined these classics in their roasted form — keeping the flavours intact while making them lighter, healthier, and easier to enjoy every day. Whether it’s the spiced tang of Roasted Moong Jor or the mild crunch of Roasted Namak Para, each bite satisfies your cravings while being gentler on your body.
Here’s why we think you should pick roasted, but please feel free to add:
- By avoiding deep frying, we cut down on saturated fats and eliminate trans fats, making our snacks better for your heart and waistline.
- Fried snacks can raise your cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart disease. Our roasted snacks use minimal oil, keeping them low in fat and much kinder to your cardiovascular health — without compromising on crunch.
- Roasted snacks are easy to digest, making them ideal for daily munching. Enjoy a handful of Roasted Methi Sticks or a bowl of Roasted Shakkar Para with your tea — all the taste, none of the heaviness.
- Roasting preserves the natural goodness of ingredients like moong dal, atta, methi, etc. Our products are made with simple, wholesome ingredients, and roasting helps retain essential nutrients while enhancing their natural flavours.
