Fitness influencer shares simple recipe to turn rotis into healthy bakarwadi: Crispy and savoury air-fried snack

Vanshika Khurana shows how to make festive snacks healthy with her easy-to-prepare bakarwadi recipe that uses whole wheat rotis as the base.

With the festivities underway, people are getting busy either ordering snacks or preparing them at home. Getting delicious bites that are also healthy is not always an easy task, as the ones available in stores are often overprocessed, loaded with excess salt and sugar. Thus, if one has the opportunity, home-made snacks are the way to go.

Taking to Instagram on November 4, fitness influencer Vamshika Khurana made it easier to cook the perfect healthy and savoury finger food with her air-fried bakarwadi recipe. It uses whole wheat rotis as the base and almost no oil to give the crunch and taste of the store-bought snacks that we all love.

The bakarwadis take less than 30 minutes to prepare. The detailed steps to make the dish are presented as follows.

Method of preparation

1. Dry roast jeera, dhania and saunf until aromatic. Lightly roast the grated dry coconut separately.
2. Transfer the roasted ingredients to a mixer grinder. Add baked sev, garam masala, red chilli powder, chaat masala and salt.
3. Coarsely grind the mixture. Make sure the masala remains dry and does not release oil.
4. Transfer to a bowl. Add til, crushed red chilli and baked sev. Mix well.
5. Add imli chutney and combine until the filling comes together.
6. Lightly brush a wheat tortilla with oil. Spread the prepared filling evenly over it.
7. Roll the tortilla tightly and cut into small bakarwadi-sized pieces.
8. Seal the edges using cornflour slurry.
9. Air fry at 150°C for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
