masala puffed rice recipe /kara pori(snacks)

My mil(mother in-law) makes it quite often,the aroma of the garlic when added to hot oil is seductive to the core and when she finishes it the whole space is filled up with tantalizing masala puffed rice /kara pori.At-times the most engaging part is that she sprinkles some plain sev to it.I always admire my mil for her ever twinkling smile and exotic cooking skill’s.We should be cautious that we don’t burn the garlic as it spoils the wholesomeness of this snack.Some times puffed rice we buy are salty by itself so check for it!!If it is so then don’t add salt or add initially for seasoning alone.The Masala puffed rice recipe/kara pori is humble yet a phenomenal tea time snack I should say!yes.. it’s too good!!generally every one loves it.
