Peri Peri Roasted Makhana: Chilli Flavour, Portions and Pack Guide

Quick answer: Peri Peri roasted makhana is described as spicy, savoury and chilli-forward. The current product contains phool makhana, sesame oil and flavour-specific seasoning, and comes ready to eat in a 42g resealable jar.

If you enjoy a chilli-led snack, this is a flavour to consider. The current product does not provide a measured heat rating, so try a small portion before deciding how much you want. Avoid assuming a fixed spice ranking based on flavour names alone.

Choose Peri Peri for a chilli-forward direction

The focus is a spicy, savoury seasoning on crisp roasted makhana. Chatpata takes a tangier, masala-led direction, while Chicken & Cheese is described as rich and cheesy. These are flavour descriptions rather than nutritional categories.

Read the makhana buying guide to compare all three and the current bundle formats. For the tangy alternative specifically, see Chatpata makhana.

What the current product text confirms

The Peri Peri product page names phool makhana, sesame oil and flavour-specific seasoning. It describes roasting rather than deep-frying, and says the snack requires no further cooking or soaking.

The short online description does not supply all seasoning sub-ingredients. Check the current pack for full ingredients and allergens. Roasted does not mean oil-free, and a chilli flavour does not establish salt content.

Understand the nutrition reference

Each jar contains 42g, while the product text uses a 25g nutrition serving. It attributes 3g protein and 2g fibre to that 25g amount.

For any nutrient listed per 25g, multiply by the grams you serve and divide by 25 to estimate the corresponding quantity. A full 42g jar is 1.68 times the reference weight. These calculations depend on the current label and do not replace it.

Use the actual jar's complete panel for calories and other figures. Do not compare a full jar with a different snack's smaller reference serving and assume the result is an equal-weight comparison.

Serve without extra preparation

Open the jar, portion the snack and close the lid again. Keep each flavour identifiable if sharing. You can add it to salad just before eating, as the product suggests, or enjoy a small bowl during a break.

The portion you choose can differ from both the full jar and the nutrition reference. Keep that distinction clear when reading the panel or comparing your snack options.

Pack options and keeping the crunch

The current selector offers one, two or three 42g jars. Choose a manageable quantity and check the latest price for the selected option. The separate Mix & Match bundle is useful when you want different flavours.

Follow the pack's storage and best-before directions. Current instructions say to keep the jar closed in a cool, dry place away from heat, sunlight and moisture.
