Maharashtrian Style Shankarapara

If you are Maharashtrian, you must have had the sweetened snack during breakfast. In Maharastra, shakarapara is commonly known as shankarpali. Shakarpara is the Maharashtrian traditional style of Shakara para is usually made during the festival seasons like Diwali and Janmashtami. It is a crunchy and flaky deeply-fried snack that is best served as a tea time snack. Shakarpara can be made sweet as well as spicy as per the wish of makers. For the sweet version, the less sweetened wheat dough is rolled and divided and made into diamond or square shapes. Then we deep fry it till crispy. For crisp Shakarpara, the wheat dough is rolled out and made as slim as it can be. For making it slightly soft, thicker with a chewy texture, this dough is fried at low flame to ensure that the pieces are cooked thoroughly. Lastly, it is sprayed with cinnamon sugar. Shakarapara can be served as a tea time snack, or it can be packed in the children’s snack box. If anyone of you missing the taste of this snack, then it is easy to make this snack. Even if the Shankarpali mix is readily available in the supermarket or retail store, no amount of readily available Shankarpali mix can substitute the taste of homely made Shankarpali snack of Maharashtrian style.
