Description

The Light & Airy Base for Iconic Indian Street Food

Experience the quintessential crunch of authentic Indian chaat with TRS Puffed Rice (Murmura/Kurmura) in a convenient 200g pack. This simple yet incredibly versatile ingredient, available at Ideal Indiska in Stockholm, consists of rice grains that have been puffed under high pressure to create a light, airy, and wonderfully crispy texture. Murmura is most famously known as the star ingredient in the beloved street food snack, Bhel Puri.

What is Puffed Rice (Murmura)?

Puffed rice is a type of puffed grain made from rice, commonly used in breakfast cereals and snack foods. In India, it’s a pantry staple with a neutral taste that makes it a perfect vehicle for a variety of bold flavors.

• Light, Airy & Crispy Texture: Its defining characteristic is its feather-light weight and satisfying crunch, which provides a wonderful textural contrast in snacks.
• The Heart of Bhel Puri: Unmistakably the main component of Bhel Puri, where it’s tossed with chopped onions, potatoes, tangy tamarind chutney, spicy green chutney, and topped with crispy sev.
• Versatile Snack Ingredient: Used in many other Indian street food snacks like Jhalmuri (a spicy puffed rice snack from Bengal) and as a component in various “chivda” or “mixture” namkeens.
• A Healthier Snacking Choice: Puffed rice is very low in calories and fat, making it a light base for snacks.
• Ready to Use: This product is ready to be used straight from the pack.
• Trusted TRS Quality: TRS is a well-regarded brand, known for its commitment to providing clean, high-quality staple ingredients.

How to Use TRS Puffed Rice

The possibilities are endless, but here are the most popular uses:

• Bhel Puri: The classic preparation. Mix TRS Puffed Rice with boiled potato cubes, finely chopped onions and tomatoes, a squeeze of lemon, and a generous amount of tamarind chutney and mint chutney. Mix well and top with a mountain of crispy sev and fresh coriander. Serve immediately to retain the crunch!
• Jhalmuri: A spicy Bengali version, often tossed with mustard oil, spices, chopped onions, chillies, and other ingredients.
• Savory Snacks (Chivda): Can be lightly roasted or fried with turmeric, curry leaves, peanuts, and other spices to create a simple, light namkeen.
• Light Breakfast Cereal: Can be enjoyed with milk and a little sugar or jaggery, similar to a commercial rice cereal.
• Energy Bars & Sweets: Used in making “murmura ladoo” or “kurmura chikki,” where it’s bound together with melted jaggery.

A Swedish Connection?

While unique, you can think of TRS Puffed Rice as a savory, more versatile version of plain rice breakfast cereals like Rice Krispies. Imagine using that light, crispy texture not just with milk, but as the base for a vibrant, tangy, and spicy salad-like snack!
