Foxnuts, also known as makhana or lotus seeds, are edible seeds harvested from the Euryale Fox plant, primarily found in India and parts of Asia. They are widely appreciated for their health benefits, being low in calories and high in protein, fiber, and antioxidants. Foxnuts are commonly roasted and consumed as a light, crunchy snack, making them a popular choice for those seeking a healthy alternative to fried or sugary snacks. Additionally, they are often used in Indian cooking, especially in curries and desserts, due to their subtle flavor and ability to absorb spices well.
