A famous Gujarati Snack or side dish – Khichu, also known as Papdi no Lot and khichiya papdi lot. Topped with a bit of oil and methi masala, it is a naturally gluten-free, vegan, and very easy-to-make snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Khichu?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Khichu is a dough for making papad\/papadi; however, because of its delicious taste, it is also consumed as Farsan (snack\/side dish).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a Gujarati steamed dish and is very popular, like other Gujarati dishes, Dhokla<\/a>, Muthiya, Handvo, and Khandvi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This chokha nu Khichu is made of rice flour and spices and served hot, drizzled with a bit of oil, and topped with red masala called methia masala. It is so good; there is a reason why it is so popular!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The khichu has gained popularity over time. You will find it on the menus of various restaurants in India, either as a part of a thali or as an appetizer or a snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be prepared from various flours like rice flour, wheat flour, bajri flour, nachani flour, jowar flour, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, this recipe uses rice flour which is slowly added to the mix of green chili, cumin seeds, and cilantro in boiling water until thick, like soft dough, and then cooked with steam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people like to shape the dough into small doughnut-like pieces before steaming, while others will cook the dough in a steamer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I prefer steaming the mass of the dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This rice flour khichu is a must-have street food in Gujarat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
