RAMESHWAR Potato Papad Batata Khis Pack of 100 gm

RAMESHWAR Potato Papad, also known as Batata Khis, is a traditional Maharashtrian snack prepared by women of Rameshwar Mahila Self Help Group from Ratnagiri district. This product reflects Konkan and Maharashtrian food traditions and SHG-led preparation supporting sustainable rural livelihoods.

Batata Khis is prepared using finely grated fresh potatoes mixed with rock salt and selected spices. The mixture is lightly cooked through steaming or boiling, shaped into thin papad portions, and sun-dried using traditional methods. Sun drying helps achieve the characteristic crispness when fried.

This potato papad is popularly consumed during fasting (upwas) and festive occasions. Once fried, it turns light, crisp, and savoury, making it suitable as a side dish with meals or as a tea-time snack. Clean handling practices and traditional preparation methods are followed to ensure consistent quality.
