How Our Wood-Fired Snacks Are Made
Palakkad Farm Sourcing
We source raw Nendran bananas directly from local farms in Palakkad, Kerala, ensuring premium grade fruit harvested at precisely the right maturity.
Precision Slicing
The raw bananas are peeled and sliced evenly to a uniform thinness of 1.2mm, which guarantees a consistent, delicate crunch in every single bite.
Traditional Wood-Fired Frying
Slices are fried in custom wood-fired clay stoves (not gas burners), cooking slowly at a steady temperature to lock in natural banana flavors.
Pure Sea Salt Seasoning
Straight from the hot oil, the warm chips are tossed gently with local sea salt and turmeric powder for the signature golden color and savory finish.
Nitrogen-Flush Packing
Chips are cooled, quality checked, and immediately packed in nitrogen-flushed bags within 3 hours of frying to preserve freshness for 45-60 days.

Palakkad banana chips are made from Nendran bananas grown in Palakkad, Kerala, the traditional variety for real Kerala chips. At Mallu Snacks we source them from farms about 40 km from our kitchen, slice them 1.2 mm thin and fry them in small batches on wood-fired clay stoves in pure oil. Mass-produced chips are usually fried in large gas or industrial fryers and often use other banana varieties, which gives a different texture and flavour.
As a guide, a 500 g pack of Mallu Snacks banana chips is enough for about 10 people as a tea-time or side snack. If chips are the main snack at your party, order a 1 kg pack. For larger events, weddings or mixed snack platters, message us on WhatsApp and we will suggest quantities.
