Chakli is traditional dish in Maharashtra, India. It is mainly made in during Diwali, a major Indian festival but is also made ocassionally.
A dough is made of mixture of flour known as ‘bhajni’. Then dough is moulded in such circular shapes. Then it is fried in oil and served hot.
Hey Viranchi,
This reminded me of my childhood friend with whom I am not in contact now but used to bring these Chakli for the lunch and share with me. Lovely.
Hello @Viranchi ,
Thank you for sharing this delicious dish with us.
Did you make this chakli on your own?
Chakli reminds me a bit about the Spanish dessert churro, the form is very similar.
Well that’s great…
@BorrisS Yes its homemade.
Chakli looks and sounds interestings @Viranchi but how do make what looks like the protective skin of a crocodile?
@AdamGT A special mould is used for this and is available in market.
Namaskar…

Thanks for Sharing about chakali with us, as a Maharashtrian I know very well, during Diwali Chakali & Chiwada is my favourite
Faral ( Snacks )…
A mould! I’m intrigued @Viranchi . So is one strand made at a time or does this mould have capacity to make many strands ?
Nice for sharing this @Viranchi ! Is it sweet?
I agree with @BorrisS looks like churros, but a tiny one.
Regards from Brazil,
Sarah.
That looks delicious and crunchy
@AdamGT The mould has capacity to make many chaklis in one go. Approximately 5-6 chaklis can be made.
@SarahKa No it is not sweet in taste. It is crunchy and has normal spicy taste.
Very interesting @Viranchi still I think you need patience.
