girmit recipe | masala puffed rice | north karnataka mandakki upkari with step by step photo and video recipe. girmit recipe or more popularly known as mandakki is a common road side street food availabe in north karnataka or even in south maharashtra. it is mainly prepared from a spicy chutney or gojju which is prepared from onions and tamarind / tomatoes.
this recipe of girmit is very nostalgic and takes back to my schooldays during my brief stay in hubli, karnataka. i personally do not like much spicy food, but i had a special attraction towards this recipe. perhaps it could be just because puffed rice or it could be because it is a street food. during those days, i use to get only 3-4 spoons of it as my father was very cautious about its spice level. north karnataka cuisine isalmost synonymous with the extra spice, it has to offer. you can generally feel the same heat with this recipe too and i recommend to be very cautious while serving this recipe to kids.
while there is no complicated steps in thismasala puffed rice recipe, yet i would like highlight few tips and recommendations. firstly, increase or decrease the amount of masala curry while preparing girmit to adjust the spiciness. also, do not over mix as the churumuri will turn soggy and wont taste great. lastly, prepare the masala curry in bulk, can be stored in refrigerator and used when required.
finally i would like to highlight my other street food recipes collection with this traditional girmit masala puffed rice recipe. it includes, dabeli, cheese dabeli, vada pav, mirchi bajji, pav bhaji, pani puri, sev puri, dahi puri and aloo chaat recipe. in addition do visit my other recipes collection with this recipe post,
