Cook soaked sabudana with potatoes, roasted peanuts, cumin, and green chilli, then finish with lemon juice. The peanuts add a nice crunch while the potato makes the dish more filling.<br \/>\nIt is an easy breakfast or lunch option, especially when you are cooking for the family. And if you are sending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fnp.com\/gifts\/navratri-lp\">Navratri gifts<\/a> to someone who loves festive food, FNP\u2019s selection of sweets and edible treats gives you plenty to choose from.<\/p>\n<h3>Kuttu Atta Cheela<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32706 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-300x200.png\" alt=\"Kuttu Aata Cheela\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-810x540.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-1140x760.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM-150x100.png 150w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_06_24-AM.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Kuttu flour can be used for more than puris. Add mashed potato, cumin, green chilli, and water to make a batter, then spread it on a hot pan and cook until the cheela is crisp around the edges. Have it with plain curd or a vrat-friendly chutney. It is also handy when you want a proper breakfast without spending too much time in the kitchen. This is one of those Navratri vrat recipes you can make in different sizes, depending on whether it&#8217;s for your breakfast plate or a larger family spread.<\/p>\n<h3>Makhana Chaat<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32707 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-300x200.png\" alt=\"Makhna Chat\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-810x540.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-1140x760.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM-150x100.png 150w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/ChatGPT-Image-Sep-24-2026-11_10_14-AM.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Roasted makhana makes a good base for a quick chaat. This vrat recipe involves mixing boiled potato, cucumber, pomegranate, and roasted peanuts, then adding lemon juice and the spices allowed during your fast. The makhana stays crunchy while the fruit and vegetables add some freshness. Make a bowl for yourself or serve smaller portions if you have guests over during Navratri. It is also an easy snack to put together when you do not want to cook an elaborate dish.<\/p>\n<h3>Samak Rice Pulao<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32708 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-300x164.png\" alt=\"Samak Rice Pulao\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_kazc37kazc37kazc-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Samak rice is a popular Navratri fast recipe and can be cooked much like a pulao. Combine it with potatoes, peanuts, and cumin, keeping the seasoning simple. A bowl of curd on the side completes the meal. You can also add ingredients permitted in your fasting tradition. This makes samak pulao a great lunch option when you want something warm and filling rather than another snack.<\/p>\n<h3>Aloo Jeera<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32710 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-300x164.png\" alt=\"Aloo jeera\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_blyedublyedublye-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Aloo jeera is about as straightforward as a fasting dish gets. Boil the potatoes, cut them into pieces, and toss them with cumin, rock salt, green chilli, and lemon juice. That is really all you need. Add roasted peanuts for crunch, or fresh coriander if it is part of your fasting diet. Serve aloo jeera on its own or pair it with vrat-friendly puris or rotis.<\/p>\n<h3>Singhara Atta Dosa<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32711 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-300x164.png\" alt=\"Singhara Atta Dosa\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_edbl11edbl11edbl-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Singhara atta can also make a crisp dosa for a change from the usual fasting staples. Prepare a thin batter with the flour and cook it on a hot pan until the edges turn golden. Serve it with curd or a chutney made using ingredients permitted during your fast. You can also serve smaller dosas as part of a Navratri platter when family or friends visit.<\/p>\n<h3>Vrat-Friendly Fruit Chaat<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32712 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-300x164.png\" alt=\"Vrat fruit chaat\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_966rfm966rfm966r-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Fruit is an easy way to put together a light fasting meal with minimal prep. Chop apples, bananas, papaya, and pomegranate into a bowl, add a squeeze of lemon, and season according to your vrat preferences.Top it with roasted nuts for extra crunch. Among vrat recipes, this is one of the simplest choices for breakfast or an afternoon snack. You can also pair your fasting spread with FNP\u2019s healthy gifting options, such as healthy snacks and dry fruits, when you want to send a thoughtful festive gesture to family and friends.<\/p>\n<h3>Sabudana Tikki<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32713 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-300x164.png\" alt=\"Sabudana Tikki\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_3522nf3522nf3522-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you have leftover soaked sabudana, turn it into tikkis instead of making another batch of khichdi. Mix the sabudana with mashed potato, roasted peanuts, and fasting-friendly spices, shape into small patties, and cook them on a pan until crisp. Serve them hot with curd or an appropriate chutney. Smaller tikkis are particularly convenient for serving guests and can sit alongside other snacks on a festive platter.<\/p>\n<h3>Makhana Kheer<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32714 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-300x164.png\" alt=\"Makhana Kheer\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_82hlvm82hlvm82hl-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Makhana is not limited to savoury dishes. Roast it, crush it lightly, and simmer it in milk with cardamom and nuts to make a creamy kheer. Use the sweetener that suits your fasting preferences. This can also be a useful gifting idea. If someone in your family prefers sweets without added sugar, FNP offers sugar-free sweets you can send as a festive treat. It gives you an option beyond the usual mithai box while keeping the gift suitable for their preferences.<\/p>\n<h3>Vrat-Friendly Paneer Tikka<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32715 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-300x164.png\" alt=\"Vrat-Friendly Paneer Tikka\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-2048x1117.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-810x442.png 810w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-1140x622.png 1140w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Gemini_Generated_Image_a9jm28a9jm28a9jm-150x82.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Paneer works well when you want a more filling snack during a fast. This Navratri vrat recipe involves coating paneer pieces in curd and fasting-friendly spices, then cooking them in a pan or on a grill until the outside picks up some colour. If your fasting practice allows it, add capsicum or other suitable vegetables before cooking. Serve paneer tikka on its own in the evening, or add it to a larger vrat spread when you have people over.<\/p>\n<h2>Make Every Navratri Meal Feel Special<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you are having a quick fruit chaat between meals or want the comfort of sabudana khichdi or a sweet treat like makhana kheer, these Navratri vrat recipe ideas will help you keep your Navratri menu varied.
