Spicy puffed rice ( Jhaal Mudi )
Puffed rice is a famous east Indian recipe. It is known as jhal mudi in eastern India (basically the bengal region), Pori in south India and murmure in other pats of India. Basically it has a diffrenet name in every different region of India., It is made by steaming rice.
Puffed rice is one of the most famous street foods in Mumbai, Orissa and Bengal. Even though it is used more for snacks, it is served in some parts of India as an offering to the Lord in the temples.
This snack is one of the most easiest and fastest snack I have ever cooked. I do not use cilantro my recipe because I cannot bear the smell of raw cilantro leaves.

Wonderful hub, and recipe. GBY
Thanks for the recipe. Like you, I cannot tolerate the smell or taste of cilantro, so I won't be using it either. I'm looking forward to trying this recipe and I like the fact that it doesn't have a lot of calories.
