Magizhampoo Murukku Recipe | Mullu Murukku Recipe
Mullu Murukku also called as Magizhampoo Murukku is a crispy South Indian snack usually made for Diwali and other special days. It gets the special texture because of using star shaped murukku press. This murukku is crunchy, light and have mild flavor from coconut milk and dal flour.
Servings15 murukku
Ingredients
- 1 cup rice flour
- ⅓ cup moong dal
- 1 tablespoon butter at room temperature
- ½ cup thick coconut milk
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
- salt to taste
- oil to deep fry
Instructions
- Dry roast moong dal till slightly golden, cool down and transfer to mixer. Grind it to a fine powder.
- Sieve it well. Now in a mixing bowl take rice flour, moong dal flour, jeera, butter and required salt.
- Extract thick coconut milk and set aside. Now mix the flour mixture well, then add coconut milk.
- After adding coconut milk add little water for a smooth non sticky dough.
- Grease the murukku press and use the murukku press (I used the thenkuzhal mould).
- Now fill the murukku press with dough.
- In a ladle make small concentric circles, flip the ladle in hot oil.
- Cook in low medium flame. Turn and cook till slightly golden.
- Once the shh sound ceases remove them and drain in tissue paper.
- Serve Mullu Murukku with tea.
Notes
- Roast dal well – I usually roast the moong dal until slightly golden before grinding, it gives better taste.
- Make dough smooth 4.– I mix dough soft and non sticky, it helps to press easily without cracks.
- Control the flame – Always fry on low medium flame, if flame is high murukku will brown fast but stay raw inside.
- Use fresh coconut milk – I prefer thick fresh coconut milk for nice flavor, but you can also use packet milk if that is easy.
- Store properly – I cool murukkus completely before storing in airtight tin. This way it stays crisp for many days.
