Do you know who invented puffed rice?    

                

                Alexander Pierce Anderson (November 23, 1862 – May 7, 1943) was an American plant physiologist, botanist, educator and inventor. His scientific experiments led to the discovery of "puffed rice", a starting point for a new breakfast cereal that was later advertised as "Food Shot From Guns".

    Okay so here is very much deep digging into murmure history.now lets make Laddoos from it.

        For Laddoos we need natural jaggery and murmure.Just two ingredients we need.you can also take the other form of jaggery.But natural jaggery are chemical free so better to use it.

What is Natural Jaggery ??

        Jaggery is made from unrefined sugar, and is obtained by boiling raw, concentrated sugar cane juice till it solidifies.Jaggery acts as a natural sweetener and provides energy over an extended period of time. 

    Presence of crystals indicates that the jaggery may have gone through other processes to make it sweeter. The colour of the jaggery also plays an important role in identifying purity. Ideally the colour of the jaggery should be dark brown. The yellowish colour in gur may indicate chemical treatment so thats not natural form.

        Lets start the recipe.

Preprations:    

• First we need to sieve the murmure because sometimes there may be some sand left in it.
• We need a big vessel of metal.we can use any vessel but should be big enough to incorporate the whole murmure.

Ingredients :

    1 pkt Murmure

    250 gm Natural Jaggery

    1tsp oil

 

Process :

1.First take a big vessel and add jaggery in it.start to melt it on slow to medium gas.

    

    After melting the jaggery you need to check the string of it.to do that take a drop of jaggery and put it on a plate if it become solid then your string is ready otherwise keep stir and keeps checking.

2.Add murmure to the vessel and mix it quickly.

3.Now switch off the flame and take some oil on hand and make laddoos from it.Be careful this mixture will be extremely hot.You can use water instead of oil.so murmure Laddoos will not stick to your hands.

            So we have our nicely round shape Murmure or Puffed Rice Laddoos.
