Ingredients

  • 1 cup kambu flour
  • 1/4 cup rice flour
  • 1/8 cup gram flour / kadalai maavu
  • 1/8 cup fried gram dal flour / pottukadalai maavu
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon hot oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • To a mixing bowl add all the ingredients and mix well. Crumble and mix well.
  • Now add water little by little and gather to form a soft non-sticky dough.
  • Take your murukku press, fix the plate. I used a flower shape. Grease it with oil and then add the dough in batches.
  • Close it. Press in concentric circles in 2-3 ladles and keep it ready.
  • Heat oil in a kadai - check by dropping a small piece of dough, if it rises up immediately then oil is ready.
  • Gently flip over the ladles, add in batches of 3-4 depends on the size of the kadai.
  • Flip over and cook. Fry till shh sound ceases and they float on top. Remove and set aside. Repeat to finish the dough. Enjoy Kambu Murukku!
