    Ingredients

    • 1 cup rice flour
    • 1/3 cup sago
    • 1/4 cup curd
    • 3/4 tablespoon butter
    • 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
    • a tiny pinch hing
    • salt to taste
    • oil to deep fry

    Instructions

    • Measure and soak sago in curd at least for 6 hrs. I soaked it overnight. Morning when you see the sago pearls will be soft.
    • Now in a mixing bowl - add rice flour, red chilli powder, sago, jeera, butter, hing.
    • Mix it well with your hands, then add water little by little. Gather together to form a non sticky dough.
    • Shape it into a log and keep it ready.
    • Fix your thenkuzhal murukku mould and fill the murukku press with the dough.
    • Now, in parallel heat oil. When oil is hot, drop a pinch of batter to check it comes up immediately, then oil is at the correct temperature. Squeeze in a spreaded manner, do not crowd.
    • Fry till golden and until shh sound ceases. It will stick together just break it while frying. You can break it after frying.
    • Drain in tissue paper. Once it cools down, break it and set aside.
    • Serve Sago Murukku with tea!

    Notes

    • Do not overcook, it should golden.
    • As sago is more in this recipe, I recommend to make it as uthiri murukku as I don't think we can make circles with this recipe.
    • Soaking for more hours is required else sago may pop out so be at a safer distance while frying.
    • When you squeeze the dough will stick to each other, when it becomes crispy try to break with the ladle else after frying you can break it.
    • Regulate flame and cook, do not cook in high flame.
    • I used my thenkuzhal press to get this shape.
    • If you are making in larger quantity keep the dough closed to avoid from drying.
      If the dough is too dry sprinkle little water.
