Jalsa Jeera Khari Biscuits 200g

Jalsa Jeera Khari Biscuits 200g are crisp, flaky Indian-style puff pastry biscuits flavoured with aromatic cumin seeds. Also searched as jeera khari, cumin khari, jeera puff or Indian puff biscuits, they combine delicate pastry layers with a warm, savoury spice note that pairs naturally with chai and coffee.

Khari is a popular South Asian bakery snack known for its airy, layered texture. Jeera, the Hindi and Gujarati word for cumin, adds a distinctive earthy aroma and gentle warmth without making the biscuits hot or heavily spiced. Comparable 200g jeera khari products are described as baked, crispy and flaky tea-time snacks made with wheat-based pastry and cumin seasoning.

Jalsa Jeera Khari is ready to eat straight from the packet. Serve it with masala chai, cardamom tea, coffee or warm milk for breakfast or an afternoon snack. The biscuits can also be topped with green chutney, cream cheese, sliced cucumber or grated cheese for quick savoury canapés.

To prepare khari chaat, add boiled potato, yoghurt, tamarind chutney, coriander chutney, sev and chaat masala immediately before serving so the pastry remains crisp. No heating is required, although brief gentle warming may help restore crispness if the biscuits have softened. Handle them carefully because the thin pastry layers can crumble easily.

Keep the unopened pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. After opening, reseal it securely or transfer the biscuits to an airtight container.
