Ganthiya

Ganthiya (Gujarati: ગાંઠિયા/ગાંઠીયા) are deep fried Indian snacks made from chickpea flour.[1] Along with Khakhra, Fafda, Dhokla, and Khandvi (among others), they are among the most popular snacks originating from the Indian State of Gujarat. They are a popular teatime snack not only in Gujarat but across India and also among NRIs across the world.[1][2] They are sometimes soft and not always crunchy like most other Indian snacks.[3] A sweeter version is called Mitha Ganthiya. Bhavnagar city of Gujarat is famous for its variety of Ganthiya.
