My aunt’s (maushi’s) edition for this one:

4 cups of puffed rice
4 chillies
2 tbsp of coriander
4-5 cloves of garlic
1 tsp oil
1 pinch of asafoetida
1/4 tsp of turmeric
8-10 curry leaves
salt per taste

Grind chillies, coriander and 4-5 cloves of garlic and salt in a grinder (without water) or in a pestle, try and make it fine.

Now this paste should be applied on the puffed rice. Let it remain to dry for an hour or two.

Heat oil in a kadai. Add the seasoning and on low flame keep stirring till it becomes crispy.

Number of chiilies and garlic can be adjusted as per choice.

Thankyou Shilpa for the easy and nice recipe. Mine is as follows. In a Kadai heat oil and season with mustard seeds, curry leaves, asafoetida and green chillies and turmeric. Optionally you may add garlic pods too. Add chirmuro, salt to taste and heat for some more time till the puffed rice becomes crispy.
You may add Shev after cooling for getting Shev Mamra Gujju style.

[...] Puffed rice: (Kurmura/Murmura) Used in bhel, laddoos , chikkis and assorted goodies. We get the brown variety with no salt, no additives from the cereal aisle of the chain that everyone loves to hate (and sue). [...]
