## About

A classical Indian snack recipe prepared with essential ingredients like puffed rice, fried snacks and fried peanuts. **Murmura Chivda**, commonly known as **Chiwda Murmura**, is a vital tea-time evening snack. It is widely appreciated by all age groups, particularly kids, and goes very well with any hot beverage. Recipes made from puffed rice are typically considered gluten-free, low-calorie, low-fat ingredients and ideal snack recipes.

There are many ways a simple **Murmura Chivda snack** can be prepared. The most common way is to dry roast the puffed rice with spice powders in a small quantity of oil. It is then tossed with fried ingredients like peanuts, dry coconut, sev mixture, lentils and red chillies. Additionally, adding finely chopped onions and tomatoes can give extra flavour and taste to the snack. However, adding any wet ingredients reduces its shelf life. Further, fried thick poha can add flavour and taste to Murmura Snack.
