rajasthani bhel

Introduction

Bhujia was first prepared in the princely state of Bikaner during the reigning period of Maharaja Dungar Singh during the year 1877. Since then, this snack has evolved into an extremely popular snack across the country and in many parts of the world as well. Haldiram and Bikanerwala have built large businesses around the humble Bhujiya.

Similar to Bhujiya, Chickpea and Greengram papad is widely produced in Bikaner. These round flatbreads can be roasted or fried before being enjoyed as an accompaniment to a meal. The most common household name for Papad is Lijjat Papad.

Mana Hotels has clubbed these 2 extremely popular snacks of Rajasthan to come up with this preparation of Rajasthani Bhel with Bhujiya. This preparation would be well suited as a snack before a meal or to accompany a cup of hot tea.
