Pori Urundai, an easy to make snack with puffed rice and jaggery syrup. It's one of the common snacks that's usually prepared on Karthigai Deepam festival.
You can make pori urundai both with rice pori and nel pori. The recipe is the same for both the types of pori. Today,i'm using the rice pori but i had tried it with nel pori in the past and it tasted really good too.
I usually buy pori for making masala pori which is ST's favorite tea time snack. But now a days , i'm making this pori urundai a lot in the name of kid. But usually, it was me who finished off all the pori urundai. It's one of my recent favorites !
Now coming to today's post, as Karthigai deepam is nearing, i thought that sharing this recipe would help a few. It's such a simple recipe and would be ready in mins.
The only thing that you need to be careful of is, making the jaggery syrup. Rest of the recipe would be icing on the cake.
Now let's see how to make this pori urundai.
