12 Healthy Snack Options India for Daily Cravings

8. Roasted Sweet Potato Slices

Sweet potatoes are a filling source of complex carbohydrates and fiber, and sliced roasted wedges become a comfy, warm snack that can replace fried options. Slice into thin rounds or wedges, toss lightly with oil, salt, and roasted cumin or a pinch of garam masala, and roast on a tawa or in an oven until edges caramelize. They take about 20–25 minutes in most ovens and a bit less on a covered tawa with steady heat. Serve with a squeeze of lemon and a dusting of chaat masala for that familiar street-food zing without deep frying. These keep well in a lunchbox and reheat quickly on a tawa. For extra protein, pair with a small bowl of curd or a scatter of roasted peanuts on top.
