Arroz Tufado, known as puffed rice, is a light and airy cereal made by heating rice grains under high pressure until they expand. Originating from South Asian cuisine, it is widely enjoyed in snacks and desserts, such as Indian bhel puri or Southeast Asian sweet treats. Typically, plain puffed rice is low in calories and fat, making it a popular choice for weight-conscious individuals. It is also gluten-free and provides a quick source of energizing carbohydrates, though its nutritional profile is relatively simple, with minimal protein, fiber, and vitamins. Some variations include added sugar, salt, or oils, which can increase calories and reduce healthfulness. When consumed in moderation and as part of a balanced diet, Arroz Tufado can serve as a versatile ingredient for light meals or snacks while adding texture and crunch.
