furthermore, some easy and important tips and suggestion while preparing pori urundai or murmura laddu. firstly the puffed rice or murmura has to be super crisp before mixing it to the jaggery paste. hence i would recommend to use fresh and crisp murmura. secondly, i would heavily recommend to use sticky and dark coloured jaggery for this recipe. this is the same jaggery used for peanut or sesame ladoo. you may want to ask for the sticky jaggery in your nearest grocery shop. lastly, once murmura is mixed with jaggery syrup, it has to be shaped immediately. do not cool down as the jaggery syrup will crystalise.
