Chekkalu, also known as Pappu Chekkalu or Rice Crackers, are traditional Andhra savory snacks made from a flavorful dough of rice flour, butter, spices, and coarsely ground chana dal. Flattened by hand and deep-fried to a crunchy golden crisp, Chekkalu are loved for their robust texture, spicy aroma, and rustic homemade taste. Perfect as a festive treat or an everyday tea-time bite, these crispy discs offer a satisfying crunch in every bite.
