This post has been lying in my draft since Diwali and finally posted it today.Murukku is a traditional snack which prepared for festival especially Diwali.There are lot of variants in the murukku recipe and this is my mom's recipe,uses home made rice flour. I used the store bought rice flour and here is the recipe for crunchy and yummy murukku....
Ingredients Ingredient | Quantity |
Rice flour | 4cups |
Urad dhal | 1cup |
Roasted gram dhal(pottukadalai) | 1/4cup |
Cumin seeds | 1tbs |
Butter | 5tbs |
Asafoetida | 1/4tsp |
Salt | to taste |
Oil | for frying |
Method Dry roast the urad dhal to a nice golden brown color and powder it in the blender and sieve it(used store bought urad flour and roasted it),powder the pottukadali and sieve it.
Take a large mixing bowl and mix rice flour,urad flour,roasted gram dhal flour,cumin seeds,salt and butter.Make a smooth and stiff dough with water.
Heat the pan with oil and fill the murukku press with the prepared dough using the round eyed disc.Squeeze it on a ladle or small plates.
Drop it carefully in the oil once the oil becomes hot enough.Cook both the sides till the sizzling sound stops and drain it on a paper towel.
Once it becomes cool store it in an air tight container.
- Instead of cumin seeds,sesame seeds can be used.
- If you are making large quantities make the dough in batches otherwise the color may turn dark.
- While dropping the murukku the oil should be hot,then reduce the temperature to medium.
