The Mangal Mukhe counter in Patna: jars of makhana, bhujia and chana dal beside brass bowls

Our Story

From Bihar,
with a love
for good food

It began in 1975 as a small snacks shop in Patna. The recipes were simple, the ingredients were honest, and the neighbourhood kept coming back.

Fifty years on, those same recipes are sealed into jars — roasted makhana from Bihar's lotus ponds, fine besan bhujia and chatpata chana dal. Same hands, same standards, made now for kitchens across India.

Why Mangal Mukhe

What Goes Into Every Jar

Nothing complicated. Good makhana, real ghee, traditional masala — and a label that tells you exactly what is inside.

Roasted in Ghee

Our makhana is slow-roasted in desi ghee for a rich, clean taste.

Not Fried

Roasted, never deep-fried — so the crunch stays light.

Traditional Recipes

The same recipes our counter in Patna has used for decades.

Premium Ingredients

Carefully sourced makhana, besan and chana dal. Nothing less.

No Added Preservatives

Freshly made, sealed at source, honestly labelled.

No Artificial Colours

The colour on your fingers comes from real masala.

Our Heritage

From the Heart of Bihar

Bihar grows almost all of India's makhana. It is harvested by hand, pond by pond, the way it has been for generations — and it is where everything we make begins.
