Singhare Ki Puri is a crisp and aromatic deep-fried bread crafted from Water Chestnut flour, uniquely celebrated during Indian fasting seasons. The flour is derived from dried water chestnuts, making it an excellent energy source that is light on the stomach. Similar to Rajgira, this flour requires mashed potatoes for binding and a smooth texture. The resulting puris have a slightly darker hue and a distinct earthy sweetness. They are traditionally served with curd, pumpkin sabzi, or aloo rassa to provide a wholesome fasting experience.
