Suihutti

Suihutti is a culinary term that refers to a type of deep-fried bread, commonly found in certain regions of the Indian subcontinent. It is distinct from other fried dough preparations due to its specific preparation method and often its unique texture. The dough is typically made from wheat flour, water, and sometimes a leavening agent. It is then rolled out into thin discs or small shapes and deep-fried until golden brown and puffed up.

The resulting suihutti is characterized by a crispy exterior and a light, airy interior. It can be enjoyed as a standalone snack or served as an accompaniment to various dishes, particularly savory curries and lentil preparations. Its flavor is generally mild, making it a versatile addition to a meal. Regional variations may exist in the exact ingredients used and the frying technique, leading to subtle differences in taste and texture. Suihutti is often associated with home cooking and traditional culinary practices.
