My Notes:

• You can even add equal ratios of rice flour and besan flour.
• I don’t have karasev achu so used my murukku press itself.
• You can skip pepper powder and add only red chilli powder.
• The dough shouldn’t be very tight so add water accordingly.
• I added 3 big cloves of garlic.
• You can replace oil with butter too.
• Cooking soda is added to give a slightly soft texture.
