Instructions
- Wash the Puffed Rice: Take 1 bowl of murmura, wash it thoroughly with water 2 times, and squeeze out all the excess water. It will become soft.
- Mix the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, add the washed murmura, 1/2 grated carrot, 1/2 chopped onion, 1/2 chopped tomato, and 1 grated raw potato.

- Spice it Up: Add 1/2 teaspoon Maggi masala, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon red chilli powder, 1 pinch hing, 1/2 teaspoon cumin-coriander powder, and salt to taste.
- Bind the Mixture: Add 1/2 bowl of besan (gram flour) to the bowl. Mix everything well. Add just a few drops of water to create a thick, spreadable batter.
- Heat the Pan: Place a tawa (pan) on the stove on medium heat and spread 1 teaspoon of oil or butter.
- Shape the Pancakes: Take a small portion of the mixture, place it on the pan, and gently flatten it with your hands to form a round pancake shape.
- Roast to Perfection: Cook the Murmura Nashta on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes until the bottom turns crispy and golden brown.
- Flip and Cook: Flip the pancake carefully, add a few drops of oil around the edges, and roast the other side until crispy.
- Serve Hot: Remove from the pan and enjoy your crispy Murmura Nashta Recipe!
