Singhara (water chestnut) is an important part of Indian fasting rituals due to its energy-boosting properties. Rich in iron, calcium, zinc and carbohydrates, water chestnuts grow in freshwater lakes in India. It’s cholesterol and gluten-free (it has a glycaemic index ranking of 60) nature makes it suitable for all individuals young or old.

We source water chestnuts from cultivators who don’t use pesticides or chemicals. They also hand pick the fruits for the best quality. We dry them and grind them into atta, which can be used to make parathas, puri, cheela and snacks even outside the popular Navratri fasting period. Doesn’t it sound tempting already?
