Point
Detail
Maize Thekua (also known as Makai ke Aate ka Thekua) is a nutritious, crispy, and traditional sweet fritter from the Bihar and Jharkhand regions of India.
While traditional Thekua is made using whole wheat flour (atta), this variation utilizes maize flour (cornmeal or makai ka aata) as the primary ingredient. It is a popular festive snack, especially prepared during the Chhath Puja festival, and is loved for its unique texture, earthy flavor, and long shelf life.
Health Benefits
Compared to refined flour snacks, Maize Thekua offers a healthier alternative because:
• It is naturally gluten-free (if made pure without adding wheat flour).
• It is rich in dietary fiber and essential minerals from the cornmeal.
• Using jaggery instead of white sugar provides iron and a natural energy boost.
