Roasted Gram Murukku

Roasted Gram Murukku is an easy instant murukku recipe. It’s a crispy murukku. If you prefer spicy murukku then use chilli powder. 

This is also called as Pottukadalai/ Chutney Dal murukku. This goes well with coffee or tea…

Ingredients

Rice Flour – 2 cups

Roasted Gram – ½ cup

Butter – 2 tsp

Cumin Seeds/Jeera – 1 tsp

Sesame Seeds – 1 tsp

Salt to taste

Oil for deep fry

Water as required

Method

In a dry blender, add roasted gram to make as fine powder. In a bowl, add rice flour and roasted gram flour and mix it.

Then add butter, jeera, sesame and salt and mix well with your hands first. Boil water when it starts to boil switch off.

Add water little by little and mix it well. Then make it as a soft dough.

Take your murukku mould and fit in the star shaped disc. I used my multi star shaped disc.

Grease the murukku press with little oil and fill it up with the dough. Now slowly press directly into oil or on a laddle.

Heat oil, drop a small pinch of dough to check if the oil temperature is right.

Once the dough immediately rises to the top with a sizzle then your oil is ready.

Flip the laddle to transfer the murukku into the oil and fry till golden brown.

Drain in a tissue paper. Cool down in a store in an airtight container.
