Bhadang is a lightly spicy puffed rice snack from Maharashtra state in India. It’s light, crunchy, yummy and very easy to make at the same time. The base of this recipe is puffed rice called as kurmura or murmura. Little bit of chili, sugar and raw peanuts give great taste to this snack.
You can also add red chili powder to make it fierce. However, don’t add if serving to kids. In addition to above, garlic can be added for variation. I personally don’t like to add garlic as it overpowers the taste. It’s great for evening or late night munching. We like to have it with ginger tea 🙂
