Nylon Sev

Nylon sev is a very thin, crisp, fried snack, traditionally made from gram (chickpea) flour, and it is used mainly as a crunchy topping for chaat and other Indian snacks. The strands are fine and pale, a bit like short, crisp vermicelli.

What Nylon Sev Tastes and Feels Like

Nylon sev is light, dry and very crunchy. The strands are much finer than ordinary sev, so they snap easily and break into small, delicate pieces. They add crunch without making a dish heavy.

Because the strands are so thin, they soften quickly if they get wet. That is why cooks add them at the last moment.

Ways to Use Nylon Sev

Nylon sev works best as a finishing touch scattered over a dish just before it is eaten. Here are some common ways to use it:

  • Sprinkle it over bhel puri, sev puri and dahi puri.
  • Top a plate of Indori-style poha with a handful.
  • Add it to samosa chaat or papdi chaat.
  • Scatter it over sev usal or a bowl of spiced curd.
  • Mix it into a homemade chivda or Bombay-style snack mix.
  • Eat a small handful on its own as a light, crisp snack.

How to Keep Nylon Sev Crisp

Nylon sev stays crunchiest when you add it right before serving. Put it on top of the chutneys, curd and chopped onion, not underneath them.

If you want finer crumbs for a garnish, rub a small handful gently between your fingers over the dish. For a bhel mix, stir the sev in last so it keeps its snap.

Nylon Sev FAQ

What is the difference between nylon sev and ordinary sev?

Nylon sev is much thinner, lighter and more delicate than ordinary sev. Thicker sev has a heavier crunch and is often used in chunkier snack mixes.

When should I add nylon sev to chaat?

Add nylon sev just before you serve. Chutneys and curd soften the fine strands quickly, so a late sprinkle keeps the crunch.

Can I use nylon sev for anything other than chaat?

Yes. Many people use it on poha, in snack mixes and as a crunchy topping for spiced curd dishes. It also works as a simple snack by the handful.

Add nylon sev to your basket and have it ready for your next bowl of bhel puri or plate of poha.

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging.

We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect.
