Achu Murukku Recipe | Rose Cookies Recipe
Achu Murukku is a crispy and mild snack made using flour batter and deep fried using special mould. This has light crunchy texture with slight sweetness and mild coconut flavour. It is little different from regular murukku because it is made as batter and shaped using mould.
Servings13 Murukku
Equipment
- Achu Murukku Mold
Ingredients
- 1 cup maida
- ¼ cup rice flour
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- salt to taste
- water as needed
- oil for deep frying
Instructions
Getting Mould Ready:
- First we need to treat mould, but this is mainly for iron / aluminium. If its nonstick then you can use it as such. I first washed it well, soaked in rice cooked starch water overnight. Then immersed in heated oil for 5 mins, switched off and left it in that oil overnight. Now the mould is ready.
Achu Murukku :
- Extract coconut milk , measure and keep aside.
- To a mixing bowl - add maida, rice flour and powdered sugar.
- Add salt and sesame seeds. Mix well. Get ready with coconut milk and the mould.
- Add the coconut milk and mix well. It should form a slightly thin batter. If the batter is thick then add little water. Set aside.
- Now heat oil, dip the mould in it till its heated at least for 15 seconds. Then immediately dip the mould in the batter so that ¾th of mould is immersed in the batter. The batter will stick to the mould.
- Now carefully dip the mould in preheated oil. Leave for few seconds. Make sure to dip the mould in preheated oil each time before dipping in the batter.
- Then shake the mould for the murukku to release from mould. If it doesn't come out use a fork to pull it out. Fry till golden. Repeat until you finish the entire batter.
- Turn over and cook till golden on both the sides. Remove, drain in tissue paper. Cool down then store Achu Murukku.
Notes
- Mould – I dip the mould well in oil before dipping in batter. If the oil is not hot the batter will not stick.
- Batter consistency – I keep the batter slightly thin but not too runny. If too thick murukku may become hard.
- Dipping mould – I dip only three fourth of mould in batter. This helps murukku release easily.
- Frying – I fry the murukku till it turns golden and crisp. Flip once for even cooking.
- Releasing – If murukku does not come out I shake gently or use fork. After few tries it comes easily.
