Chakri 250g – Crunchy Gujarati Spiral Snack
Few snacks are as easy to recognise as chakri. Each tight coil is piped by hand-shaping tradition, fried until golden and left to cool into a crisp spiral that snaps cleanly with every bite. Known as chakli in Maharashtra and much of India, it is a staple of Gujarati farsan tins, Diwali plates and everyday tea breaks.
Our Chakri is made in the UK by Chandra Foods, a family business that has been making traditional gujarati snacks since 1985. It comes in a 250g pack, enough for a family tea time or a full snack bowl for guests.
What Chakri Tastes Like
The dough is built on rice flour, which gives chakri its light, brittle crunch. Green chillies and fresh ginger bring a gentle warmth, while cumin, ajwain and sesame seeds add a toasty, savoury aroma. It is flavourful without being fiery, so it suits children and adults alike.
When to Serve It
- ☕ Chai time: the classic pairing, morning or evening
- 🪔 Diwali and festivals: a must on any farsan platter
- 🥣 With chutney: try green chutney, tamarind chutney or a yoghurt dip
- 🎒 On the go: pack a handful for lunchboxes, travel or the office
Build a Snack Platter
Chakri sits well beside sweeter and spicier snacks. Pair it with our Sweet Para for contrast, or try Methi Chakri if you like the earthy taste of fenugreek. For a ready-made festive selection, it also comes in our Diwali snack collection.
