How to Use Fantastic Rice Crackers in Indian Cuisine
Fantastic Crackers are not just snacks; they’re versatile ingredients that can be transformed into gourmet delights. Here is how you can bring a crispy revolution to your kitchen:
1. Chaat with a Twist
Forget the papdi — use Fantastic Crackers as the base for your next chaat. Top with boiled potatoes, chopped onions, green chutney, tamarind sauce, and a sprinkle of sev. The result? A quick, crunchy, flavour-packed street-food experience at home.
2. Cracker Tikkis
Crush the crackers and mix them with mashed potatoes, green chilies, coriander, and garam masala. Shape into small patties and pan-fry. These make for great starters or tea-time snacks.
3. Bhel Puri Booster
Toss in a handful of crushed Fantastic Crackers into your bhel puri for an added crunch that doesn’t go soggy too quickly. They also absorb chutneys well, giving every bite a zingy punch.
4. Cracker Crust for Kebabs
Replace breadcrumbs with crushed crackers to coat kebabs or cutlets. It gives a golden, crispy exterior with a touch of spice that elevates the dish effortlessly.
5. Dahi Cracker Delight
Layer the crackers with spiced yogurt, mint chutney, and pomegranate seeds to create a deconstructed dahi puri-style snack. It is refreshing, crunchy, and full of flavour.
