@JudyEv oh if you don't like popcorn, you sure don't like this one too. It is available on Amazon if you want to try.

Yes. I do know but I have never tried it so far. But I wish to try it. Sadly, I have never seen this in nearby shops. By the way, popcorns are my favourite. If makhana is similar to popcorn I might love it, I think.

They are also probably a good source of Calcium. I like Kheer with this as the base ingredient. Not aware about Weight loss, hormonal balance etc.

Me too... I have never prepared kheer with Makhana...but vegetable yes...fried first in oil, lightly...kept aside and balance like any other kofta curry...tastes quite good.

Yeah , in my first attempt I have fried the makhana. I don't know how to have it so I fry it with some spices and it was burned . The next time tried to have it alone . I Prefer to eat them alone without adding anything

Interesting! I've never heard of fox nuts. They look like some kind of puffed cereal. If it has health benefits, I want to try this

@Icydoll I don't fry..just roast it and take them out in bowl. I like it plain also. Sometimes we add a spoonful of ghee when it's still hot and freshly roasted and mix it with salt, pepper powder and if you want add chaat masala.
