About Nylon bhajia
Nylon Bhajia, a beloved snack from Indian cuisine, traces its origins to street food culture, particularly in Gujarat. Made from thinly sliced potatoes, dipped in a spiced gram flour (besan) batter, and deep-fried to golden perfection, they are known for their light, crisp texture—hence the name "nylon," signifying their delicacy. Ingredients typically include potatoes, gram flour, turmeric, chili powder, and salt. While Nylon Bhajia offers a deliciously satisfying crunch, it is high in calories due to deep frying and should be enjoyed in moderation. The gram flour provides protein and fiber, contributing to satiety, while the spices like turmeric have potential anti-inflammatory benefits. However, its oil content can add saturated fats depending on the frying method and oil used. Commonly served with chutneys or tea, Nylon Bhajia remains a quintessential treat for indulging in occasional comfort food moments.
