Plain Makhana, Real Control
You decide how to enjoy it
Unlike pre-flavoured snacks, Amma’s Plain Makhana keeps things simple so you can roast it just the way you like – light, spicy or indulgent.
From humble beginnings in the lotus ponds of Eastern India to kitchens across the country, Amma's Makhana is a celebration of tradition, health, and the unwavering love of mothers everywhere.
Every kernel tells a story of generations of farmers, time-honored recipes passed down through families, and our commitment to bringing you the finest, most nutritious snacks that nourish both body and soul.
Our brand is built on showcasing the health benefits of makhana as a true superfood, while also sharing the journey of how it's grown, harvested, and lovingly popped. Through thoughtful packaging and honest storytelling, we aim to put makhana from our homeland on the global map.


Makhana grows abundantly in the eastern parts of Bihar and the North Bengal border region, where our family comes from. We grew up seeing makhana in our homes every day-once considered an affordable, ordinary snack that only locals truly appreciated.
As the world has moved toward healthier lifestyles and more mindful eating, makhana has emerged as a revelation: a superfood that satisfies snacking cravings like popcorn, yet offers far superior nutrition. Residing at the very source of this ingredient, we felt inspired to create a brand that speaks not only about its health benefits, but also about the care, craft, and effort that goes into every single popped kernel.
"Every kernel is hand-harvested from lotus flowers that bloom in pristine wetlands, where nature's purity meets generations of farming wisdom. "
Makhana isn't just delicious - it's a nutritional powerhouse that ancient Ayurvedic practitioners have revered for millennia. Modern science confirms what our ancestors always knew: these lotus seeds are nature's gift to holistic wellness.
Low in calories, high in protein, and packed with essential minerals, makhana supports everything from heart health to weight management. It's the perfect snack for those who refuse to compromise between taste and nutrition.
