RICE MURUKKU - BAKERY STYLE

 BAKERY STYLE RICE  MURUKKU :

MURUKKU is a deep fried snack made with gram flour and rice flour. It is very Crispy light, aromatic, spicy and delicious. This is one of the popular snacks that both adults and kids loves to eat.

There are so many varieties of MURUKKU,here I am sharing the  recipe of my grandmother. Here I am making MURUKKU with roasted gram flour ( besan flour) and roasted rice flour. I have added garlic and chillies to make Spicy. This is an instant recipe that a beginner's can also do. I take 2 cup of roasted rice flour and 2 cup of gram flour (besan flour). The measurement should be done correctly. The amount of rice flour and gram flour should be equal. Otherwise you didn't get correct texture of MURUKKU while making. Garlic cloves, green chilly, Cumin seeds and curry leaves are grinded and make a fine paste. These paste are added into the Rice and gram flour mix. Then for flavour I used black sesame seed. The mix of Rice flour, gram flour, garlic chilly paste and sesame seeds makes a soft dough which can be deep fried in oil by using Noolputtu/ idiyappam Maker. This MURUKKU recepi I tried many times and got best results. It tastes like that of  bakery style Murukku.
