Karapusa, also known as Karam Pusa or Omapodi, is a classic South Indian savory snack made from gram flour and rice flour dough, seasoned lightly with spices, and pressed into thin, crispy strands before deep-frying. Light, airy, and mildly spiced, Karapusa has a delicate crunch that makes it perfect for munching on its own or using as a topping for chaats and other snacks. Its subtle flavor and melt-in-the-mouth texture make it a festive favorite and an everyday tea-time companion.
