Bhakarwadi is a traditional sweet and spicy tea-time snack preparation said to have originated from the Maharashtrian cuisine. This snack is a flour based round disc shaped stuffed with a mix of poppy seeds, grated coconut, sesame seeds, coriander and cumin seeds, black pepper corns, hing, fennel seeds and little sugar all mixed together, powdered and rolled similar to a Swiss roll and cut into tiny spiral disc and then finally deep fried to a crispy finish. Bhakarwadi is a wonderful and delectable snack that can be enjoyed with a cup of steaming hot tea. This is a north Indian snack especially popular in the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat and Rajasthan.

Every state has their own variation of preparing these super delicious tiny bites of snack. It’s a very popular snack among the Maharashtrian people and widely sold in the markets of Pune. It is easy to prepare snack, delectable and especially made during festivals. The Bhakarwadis look enticing and lovely small bite sized spiral rolls stuffed with a super tasty sweet and spicy filling.

Fillings can be made of your own choice giving new taste and flavours. This delightfully, crispy, crunchy snack made with a combination of wheat flour, gram flour, rolled into a flat Indian bread and stuffed with some truly unmatched flavourful and delicious fillings, rolled neatly well to make a long tube and then cut into small equal bite sized roundels and deep fried until cooked, brown and crispy.

Few people also use ingredients like potato, dry coconut, red chilli powder, sev, sesame seeds and spices for stuffing. It is very popular in Kolhapur and Pune cities and the taste is equally delicious here with a slight difference in the ingredients used for filling. Pune Bhakarwadi does not have coriander and garlic in the stuffing while Kolhapur bhakarwadi does have lots of coriander and garlic.

The strong and aromatic fragrance fennel seeds enhances the snack and the crunch that you can feel in between the bites you take is an absolute delight to the taste buds. Poppy seeds along with sesame seeds taste nutty and when ground offers a pleasant texture, appearance and fruitiness that is irresistible, flavourful and delectable.

Bhakerwadi is an evergreen favourite snack to many having an addictive spicy, sweet, and salty taste; all mixed in one roll with a crunchy outer pastry crust. An ideal snack which could be best served during parties, get-togethers and most people from Gujarat carry this variety of snacks during travelling in trains as its easy to carry and not messy. If prepared in the right way using dry spices and ingredients then would stay for a week.Other yummy and delectable popular snack preparations apart from Bhakarwadi are Khakhra, Thepla, Chudva, Kothimbir Vadi etc.
