About Puffed rice balls
Puffed Rice Balls are a delightful snack made from puffed rice, jaggery, and sometimes nuts or seeds. Often associated with Indian cuisine, this treat is popular during festive seasons and for its simple yet satisfying flavor. The puffed rice provides a light, crisp texture, while jaggery, a natural sweetener, adds a rich caramel-like sweetness. Some variations include cardamom or dried fruits for added flavor and nutrition. On the health spectrum, these snacks are relatively low in fat and can be a source of quick energy due to their carbohydrate content. Jaggery offers small amounts of minerals like iron and potassium, making it slightly healthier than refined sugar. However, puffed rice is low in fiber and protein, and the high sugar content from jaggery should be consumed in moderation. Puffed Rice Balls are a wholesome treat when enjoyed within a balanced diet.
