ポン菓子 · মুড়ি

Just two ingredients: natural long-grain brown rice and salt. Puffed to a perfect crunch and ready for jhal muri, chaat or straight from the bag.

A staple of Bangladeshi tea time, Antar Puffed Rice is naturally puffed — never fried — so it stays light while keeping the toasty flavour of the grain.

Cooking hacks

Mix just before serving

Puffed rice soaks up moisture fast. Add wet ingredients like lemon, tomato or chutney at the very last moment to keep every bite crunchy.

Crisp it up again

If an open bag has gone soft, a minute or two in a dry pan over low heat (or 3 minutes in a 150°C oven) brings the crunch right back.

Keep it airtight

Once opened, tip the rest into an airtight jar or clip the bag tightly and keep it away from the stove and kettle steam.
