Puffed rice is usually made by heating rice kernels under high pressure in the presence of steam, though the method of manufacture varies from location to location. Puffed rice is used in snack foods and breakfast cereals, and is also a popular street food in some parts of the world. It is an ingredient of bhel puri, a popular Indian chaat item. Puffed rice is referred to as mur mure in some parts of India. It is also called churmuri or kurlu. Puffed Rice (muri) is made by heating rice in a sand-filled oven. Muri is to rice just like popcorn is to corn. The processing involved makes rice less perishable. Muri is a staple food in many parts of Bengal and Bangladesh.
