Badam Murukku Recipe (Almond Murukku)

Badam Murukku is a crispy savory snack made by adding badam paste in regular murukku dough. This recipe has mild nutty flavor and rich taste because of badam added in it. It is little different from the usual murukku as it gives a nutty flavour of almonds along with crisp texture outside.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 12 nos badam
  • ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 and ½ teaspoon oil
  • ½ teaspoon butter
  • salt to taste
  • oil for deep frying
  • water as needed

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl add rice flour, add salt sesame seeds. Add butter.
  • Soak badams in hot water. Peel off the skin, transfer to mixer jar with little water and grind to a smooth paste.
  • Add badam paste to the mixing bowl.
  • Add hot oil. Mix well with your finger tips for even mixing.
  • Add water little by little to form a smooth non-sticky dough.
  • Fill the murukku press with the dough. Press to form murukku shape on a ladle. Heat oil, flip the ladle and tap. Likewise make 2-3 murukkus at a time.
  • Fry till the shh sound stops or until golden brown. Drain in tissue paper. Likewise finish off the dough.
  • Cool down the Badam murukku completely then store in airtight container.

Notes

  • Badam paste – I usually soak the badam in hot water and peel the skin before grinding. This give smooth paste and better texture.
  • Dough consistency – I keep the dough soft and not too tight. If the dough becomes hard, murukku may break while pressing.
  • Pressing murukku – I grease the mould little before filling the dough. This help the murukku come out easily in shape.
  • Oil heat – I fry the murukku in medium hot oil so it cook evenly. Too hot oil may brown fast on outside.
  • Frying – I fry till the sound reduces in oil and it turns golden. This show the murukku is cooked and crisp.
