Puffed Rice (Murmura) is a type of rice that is expanded by heating rice grains under high temperature and pressure. During this process, the moisture inside the grains turns into steam, causing them to puff up to several times their original size, resulting in light, airy, and crunchy grains.

Puffed rice is typically prepared using a special process where high heat and pressure expand the grains. This process is similar to how popcorn is made.

It can be made from different types of rice, but commonly short-grain or medium-grain rice is used. It is available in both white and brown varieties, depending on the type of rice used.

Puffed rice is widely popular in Odisha, Bengal, and Bihar, where it is commonly consumed as a breakfast item. In Odisha, it is also used in various traditional occasions such as Kumar Purnima, पूजा rituals, and weddings. It is used to prepare traditional food items like Mua, papad, and "Kora Khai". Kora Khai is a well-known prasad associated with the Lingaraj Temple, and holds traditional significance.
