About Jhaal muri

Jhaal Muri is a flavorful and crunchy street food snack hailing from the Bengal region of India and Bangladesh. This iconic dish is made using puffed rice (muri), mustard oil, roasted peanuts, chopped onions, green chilies, tomatoes, fresh coriander leaves, and a blend of spices like turmeric, chili powder, and black salt. Sometimes, it may include sev or dried noodles for added texture. Jhaal Muri is naturally vegan and low in calories, making it a light and satisfying option for snacking. The inclusion of vegetables provides essential vitamins, while the mustard oil contributes heart-healthy fats. However, the dish can be high in sodium due to the seasoning, so moderation is key. Its vibrant flavors and unique crunch make it a cherished part of Bengali cuisine, showcasing a delicious and wholesome blend of texture and spice.
