what exactly is vepudu biyyam? can it be made at home by soaking rice, drying and frying it?
i bought it from india, the process is done inside special mills with sand and stuff. i was experimenting at home, so
vl let u know once it works out. 🙂
From the picture, it seems vepudu biyyam means marmaralu or murilu(as known in some parts of andhra).
Its a guess. And pardon me if i am wrong
it looks like “pori” in Tamil, i mean
maybe,roasted pori with the other ingredients…
@suneetha not mamra or maramaralu. These are not puffed but roasted wet rice.
not pori = mamra = burugulu
either
