Ulundu murukku recipe a crispy light snack made with whole white urad dal.ulundu murukku recipe

Ulundu murukku recipe a quick snack for Gokulashtami or Krishna Jayanthi.I had been eyeing on this urad dal murukku and tried it last diwali itself but couldn’t click pictures as I was in a hurry so made it again now to post it as Krishnar Jayanthi is coming on Aug 12th.

This murukku is our family favorite and it vanishes so soon even if I make a big batch.Do try this easy murukku for Gokulashtami and enjoy!

How to make crispy murukku?

  • If right amount of fat ie butter  / ghee is added and fried until golden murukku comes out perfect light and crispy.
  • While frying murukku if you remove it a little before itself then murukku may become soft or soggy after cooling down.
  • Temperature of oil is most important, check by dropping a small piece if its rises immediately then oil is ready.Adjust the flame then and there and fry to get evenly fried murukku.

Why is my Murukku breaking?

  • If you add more butter / ghee then murukku may break.Incase by accident if you add more butter and while pressing the murukku starts to break then you can add little more rice flour, mix it well and try again.
  • Also if the dough is stiff and if less water is added then murukku may break, in that case sprinkle little water knead it and then try again.

How do you make rice flour, What rice to use?

  • Rice flour or idiyappam flour can be used for making murukku.Check the link for method.
  • You can use store bought idiyappam flour too, no need to roast it – You can use it as such.

Variations:

  • You can add red chilli powder to make it spicy.But this murukku is usually made without spice with just salt.
  • You can replace sesame seeds with jeera too.
