Luni Khaja /Namkin Parre as shown in picture is a traditional savoury of 56 Bhog of Lord Jagannath, Puri, Odisha. This Parre is smaller than the sweet Khaja offered to Lord in Chappan Bhog. We , at our house prepare Luni Khaja on any festive occasions including Deepawali. It's an easy savoury to make, offered to Lord and enjoyed by all.
