Got a craving for eating ladoos and thought of puffed rice ladoos. They are crisp and light.
Puffed rice ladoos are made using jaggery syrup and a bit of cardamom powder. Mother made these as they were huge but very light and so ideal for kids.
I must look for puffed rice and make them myself but they are available online too.

We make Rice Krispies treats when we want something light but delicious. They're made from puffed rice and marshmallow creme or heated marshmallows. (This is the only way I eat rice.)

This is new to me. When you say marshmallows is it a vegetable or candy?

@allknowing It's a candy. Light and fluffy... We also use the marshmallow creme to make fudge, another type of candy.

@DaddyEvil I have had marshmallow candy. I tried making it too but was not a success.
Fudge is known to me and have eaten it as well. . Do you melt the marshmallows while making those crispies?

We use cardamom for many of the sweets that we make.

@allknowing The picture is good.
This is our regular snacks material.
I think it harms nothing even if it is 4 or 5 eaten.
