Raw Banana, House Masala Mix, Pink Salt, Groundnut Oil
“Long kela chips – bade cut, zyada banana, zyada masala. Sabse alag.”
Our Long Masala Kela Chips are cut lengthwise rather than in rounds – producing larger oval chips with more banana per piece and more surface area for masala. Coated with our house chaat-style masala blend after frying in pure groundnut oil. The format and masala together make these noticeably different from all other banana chip varieties.
More banana in each bite. More masala coverage. More satisfying. Our most distinctive banana chip.
Why cut lengthwise?
Lengthwise cutting creates an oval chip with more volume per piece. You get more banana texture in each bite rather than just crunch. The larger surface area also holds more masala so the flavour is more intense per chip. It is a different eating experience from the smaller round chips.
What is in the house masala?
Red chilli, chaat masala, amchur (dry mango powder), black salt and a few additional spices from our in-house blend. No artificial flavour enhancers, no MSG. The masala is tangier and more complex than simple red chilli powder.

Pro tip
Long masala chips work well crushed and mixed into raita as a flavoured crunch element. The chaat masala in the chips seasons the raita at the same time.
Storage tip
Store in a cool dry place. Keep the pack sealed tightly after opening. Consume within 3 weeks of opening for best crunch. Do not store in the fridge - moisture will make namkeen lose crispness.
Long Masala Kela Chips are our most distinctive banana chip format and the one that stands out most from everything else in the market. The lengthwise cut is a deliberate choice - more banana per bite, more surface for masala coverage. The house chaat masala uses real amchur, real chaat masala and real black salt. Fried in pure groundnut oil. No palm oil, no artificial flavour. A product with genuine character.
