This snack was introduced to me by my good friend Prem Kumar. Though I have heard the name vaguely, I never had a chance to taste it until he made for us when we visited his place. Talking about this guy, he being a north indian guy ( no offense meant), loves the south indian food, much more than I do. There is also a tale that, no one can stop him from eating sambhar once he starts..lol...jokes apart, I profusely thank him for this recipe. Thank you Prem Kumar!
Ingredients
serves 2
2 cups of puffed rice (plain and not the sweetened ones)
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - a few
Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Salt - to taste
Turmeric powder - A pinch
Asafoetida - A pinch
Oil - 1 tsp
How to make it
In a pan, add the oil in a medium flame. Once the oil is heated, add the mustard seeds and curry leaves.
Let it splutter. Add the asafoetida, turmeric powder and the red chilli powder.
Saute for a few seconds and add the puffed rice. Mix it well. Add the salt and mix again.
And its ready to eat.
Note
This might take only 10 mins to finish. Make sure you do all these in a medium flame (whichever is not very high for you) so that the rice doesn't get burned.
