Pori pakoda recipe a crispy snack made with puffed rice
Pori pakoda was new to me when I saw it first time in a book.When I had just a small batch of leftover pori wanted to try this pori pakoda / puffed rice and it tastes so good, comes out very crispy too.
Kids will love it for the texture, both enjoyed having it giving a surprise to me.I was really not sure how kids would like but when I saw them enjoying I felt this is a keeper whn you want to make quick snacks.

Hi Sharmi,
I tried out these pori pakodas & it came out very well. It was crispy & is a great recipe. Good way of finishing the left over pori.
