Puffed rice is made differently in India. They use a hot pan and black sand with no pressure release. Example: https://youtu.be/36GKVfo5PUA

To be clear, it’s black salt which is possibly in sand sized particles not black beach sand. So he doesn’t need to worry about leaving grit in the puffed rice.

Last year I got into a bit of a habit of eating bhel puri for breakfast - took a while before I realised probably why it occurred to me as something to do, that bhel is basically 'Rice Krispies' or similar. So for someone who doesn't like milk, (on its own/in large quantity like that) but loves spice, bhel puri is the ultimate breakfast cereal. :)
