Nargis Mandakki |Davangere Special Puffed Rice is a very popular spiced mandakki recipe from the town davangere located in central part of Karnataka.
This recipe of nargis mandakki is very nostalgic and takes back to my school and college days during my stay in harihar, karnataka which is 14 kilometers from the city davangere, karnataka.
Davanagere is popular for some dishes like Davangere beene dosa , mirchi bajji, mandakki usli, pundisappu palya, khara mandakki, Guladiki Undi and many more.
Every time we go to India for vacation we pack alteast 2-3 liters of this nargis mandakki from my sis-in-law father's restaurant along with some davangere special mixture (sev).
This masala mandakki recipe is easy to prepare at home with few ingredients. Nargis Mandakki recipe was shared by my sister's mother-in-law whose native is davangere and i alteast make it one in a month and eat as a snack with piping hot masala chai and bajji.
