Butter Murukku is a traditional Indian snack made during
festivals. I tried to get small pieces of butter murukku. That’s very easy
to hold and have it. Kids love these small pieces of Murukku.
The murukku is
soft with a melt in the mouth texture. This goes well with any tea party.
Ingredients
Rice Flour – 2 cups
Roasted Gram Powder – 3 tsp /Pottukadalai
Sesame Seeds – 1 tsp (black/white)
Salt to taste
Butter – 4 tsp
Oil to deep fry
Method
Take roasted gram (pottukadalai) and grind it to a fine
powder, take this grinded gram flour and set aside.
Dry roast besan flour for a min until nice aroma is
released. Now sieve together rice flour, besan and gram flour together.
In a mixing bowl add sieved flours along with sesame seeds, butter
and salt. Then mix it well.
Add water little by little to form smooth slightly sticky dough.
Take your murukku mould and fit in the star shape disc.
Grease the murukku press with little oil and fill it up with
small ball sized dough.
Heat oil, in a pan. Now carefully press directly into oil,
press in such a way.
They don’t stick to each other, so put few murukku each and
every time to avoid sticky with each other.
Fry till golden brown and drain in a tissue paper. Cool down
in a store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Hold the murukku press safe enough high to avoid hot steams.
- · Do not over crowd while squeezing as it will result in oil drunken murukkus
- · After your dough is prepared keep it covered to avoid it from drying
