• GLUTEN-FREE JEERA RICE PAPAD — COMPACT 150G TRIAL AND SOLO FORMAT | The 150g Ganesh Rice Crispie Jeera Papad is the smallest-format version of the Ganesh rice khichiya range — designed specifically for first-time buyers who want to experience the product before committing to a larger pack, solo households that consume papad occasionally rather than daily, and gifting occasions where a compact, single-serve-friendly format is more appropriate than a 500g family pack. Each pack delivers approximately 12 to 15 crispy 5-inch jeera rice papads with the same recipe and quality as the larger formats: rice flour, cumin seeds, Papad Khar, salt, and edible oil — nothing artificial.
• THE RECIPE IS THE SAME AS THE 500G FORMAT — FIVE CLEAN INGREDIENTS | Rice Flour, Cumin Seeds (Jeera), Salt, Papad Khar and Edible Vegetable Oil. No MSG, no preservatives, no artificial colours, no artificial flavourings. Papad Khar — the natural mineral leavening agent from the Bikaner region — is what gives the rice papad its characteristic explosive puff when it hits hot oil. Without Papad Khar, rice papads do not puff properly. The presence of Papad Khar in this product (vs sodium bicarbonate which many industrial manufacturers substitute) is a genuine quality differentiator that produces a visibly superior cooked result.
• THREE PERFECT COOKING METHODS — 60 SECONDS MAXIMUM FOR ALL THREE | For frying: heat oil to 175 to 190 degrees Celsius in a deep pan. Lower one papad at a time using tongs or a slotted spoon. The disc will puff completely in 2 to 3 seconds. Remove immediately, drain briefly on paper and serve hot. For roasting: hold over a medium gas flame at about 5 cm distance, rotating continuously for 8 to 10 seconds. This zero-oil method is fastest and produces the cleanest cumin aroma. For microwaving: brush both sides lightly with edible oil and microwave on full power for 45 seconds. Best result if the disc is placed on a microwave-safe wire rack rather than directly on the plate.
• THE IDEAL FIRST-PURCHASE AND GIFTING FORMAT | The 150g format serves three distinct buyer occasions. First-time buyers can trial the Ganesh Khichiya without committing to 500g — if they enjoy it (and they will), they then move to the 500g format for better per-gram value. Gift buyers can include a 150g pack in a food hamper as a regional specialty item — a Rajasthani khichiya papad alongside other Indian specialty food items creates a thoughtful, culturally coherent gift. And occasional consumers — people who eat papad once or twice a week rather than daily — find the 150g format correctly sized for their consumption rate without wastage.
• 150G PACK — 12 TO 15 PAPADS — 12-MONTH SHELF LIFE — HYGIENE-SEALED | Each pack is sealed at the Ganesh Industries production facility in Bikaner to maintain freshness for up to 12 months from manufacture. Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and moisture. The compact size makes this one of the most space-efficient pantry additions in the papad category. Ships with protective packaging to minimise breakage. No preservatives. Gluten-free. 100% vegetarian. Also available in Red Chilly, Green Chilly and Garlic variants in the 150g format.
Ganesh Rice Crispie Jeera Papad — 150g The 150g format of the Ganesh Rice Crispie range exists to serve the part of the papad market that the 500g and 250g formats cannot: the first-time buyer, the solo consumer, and the gifting occasion. These are three genuinely distinct buyer profiles with different needs, and the 150g Jeera Crispie addresses all three simultaneously. For the First-Time Buyer Rice khichiya papad is a distinctly different product from the urad dal papad that most Indian households grow up eating. Its gluten-free rice base, its lighter texture, its different puff behaviour, and its more delicate crunch all require a recalibration of expectations — and for some buyers, the product is genuinely surprising in the best possible way. The 150g format allows the first
