Servings: 18 murukku
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rice flour
- ¼ cup Besan | kadalaimaavu | gram flour
- 2 tbsp Urad dal flour
- 5- 6 Red chili I used 4 red chili but felt it could be a little more spicy
- 1 tbsp Fresh coconut
- 3-4 Garlic cloves use 8-9 cloves for nice garlic flavour
- 5-6 Curry leaves
- 2 tsp Butter
- 1 tbsp Hot oil
- Oil for deep frying
- Salt as needed
- 2 pinches Asafoetida
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Soak the red chili, curry leaves, and garlic pods in water for 15 minutes.
- Grind this into a fine paste along with coconut, using a little water.
- In a wide bowl add the rice flour, urad dal flour, kadalaimavu(besan), butter, ground red chili paste, hot oil, salt, and asafoetida.
- Add water little by little and make it a soft dough.
- I used the star achu (mullu murukku). You can use thenkuzhal achu also.
- Fill the murukku press with dough.
- Heat oil and once it becomes hot, keep the flame to medium.
- Squeeze the murukku into the oil.
- Let this cook till the oil sound subsides.
- Take out from oil and drain excess in a kitchen towel.
- Repeat this for the rest of the dough.
- Store the murukku in an airtight container.
Notes
Notes:
1. Do not make the dough in bulk, it will spoil the taste of the murukku. 2. The flavor of the Masala murukku will be more the next day. 3. The Masala murukku | poondu murukku will stay crispy and flavourful for a week.
