Borugulu or Maramaralu Mixture / Puffed Rice Mixture


This is the most common road side bandi wala's(Street side seller) snack, popularly known as 'Muntha kinda pappu(Andhra)' or 'Jhaal Muri(in Calcutta)'.  Usually the bandi wala keeps a heap of Borugulu(Murmur/Maramaralu) and a claypot on the top of the heap with hot charcoal in it(to continuously roast the 'Borugulu' under the pot). Just before preparing, he takes a dried hallow coconut shell, adds some roasted 'Borugulu' taking from under the hot claypot to the shell. Around his  'Borugulu' basket he carries chopped tomato, onion, boiled chana dal, fried peanuts and all the other spices in different vessels. He adds up all one by one and mixes them thoroughly and finally serves them in a paper cone topping with some coriander leaves... Aaah! It sounds so mouth-watering isn't it???? I love to have one for sure whenever I am on the 'Tankbund' pavements.. :) Also, in the streets of 'Tirumala(Place of Lord Balaji's temple)'. It tastes really special there!! Let's go ahead with the recipe now.. shall not make you wait much longer now :)
