In a pan add a heat a tsp of Ghee . Add makhana and roast it on medium low flame for 3-5 mins . Let it get crispy.
When you pick up a makhana and break , it should be crisp & break easily . This is the indication that Makhana is well roasted .If it doesn't, and is still little hard , you may have to roast them for few more mins.
Now add all the flavoring ingredients one by one like salt , haldi powder , red chilli powder , jeera powder , chart masala , aamchoor powder
Toss everything nicely such that makhana s are well coated with masala. If required add a tsp of ghee ( in case masala s are getting burnt )
That's it...store in airtight container and enjoy ????
