Author:	Priti	Category:	Snacks	Cuisine:	South Indian

Prep Time:	10 Mins	Cook Time:	30 Mins	Total Time:	40 Mins

Yields:	25-30 pieces

Ingredients:

3 Cup - Rice Flour/Arisi Maavu
3/4 Cup - Gram Flour/Besan/Kadala Maavu
1/4 cup - Pottu kadalai Maavu/Roasted Gram Flour
2 tsp - Fresh Garlic Paste
2 tbsp - Softened Butter
2 tbsp - Hot Oil
2 tsp - Red Chili Powder
To Taste - Salt
As Need - Water
To Deep Fry - Oil

Method:

Grind roasted gram dal/Pottu kadalai or chutney dal in mixer into fine powder, sieve it and measure 1/4 cup to use.

In a bowl add rice flour, prepared roasted gram flour, gram flour (besan), softened butter, oil, red chili powder, garlic paste and salt.
Rub well with hands to combine everything well. Add water in small quantity to make smooth, non sticky dough without any cracks knead the dough well for that, keep the dough covered always with damp cloth. Take murukku machine or press and use star hole disc/plate,Fill the murukku press with dough. On a plastic sheet or butter paper, press out murukku into spiral shape, make 3-4 murukku and keep it ready.

Heat oil for frying in a kadai/wok. To check oil temperatures drop small ball of dough in oil, if it rises immediately on top then the temperatures is correct. Gently drop 2-3 murukku in hot oil, don't over crowd the kadai, it will take longer time to cook and they will break in small pieces when you stir.
Cook in medium flame once bubbles reduces turn and cook another side until bubbles ceases. Drain murukku in kitchen tissues, repeat same for rest of dough. (color difference you see in picture of murukku is due to lighting, it's the same stuff :)

After cooling completely store in airtight container, stays good for 3-4 weeks.

Notes

Make smooth dough while still little tight, knead well so there are no cracks.
You can soak 4-5 dry red chili in water along with garlic and grind both to smooth paste, instead of using red chili powder and garlic paste separately.
Sieve all the flours to avoid any lumps.
Cook in medium flame, if the oil temperatures drops, they will be oil drunken murukku.
Don't over crowd while squeezing it will result in pieces getting break into smaller size.
Remember to always cover dough with damp cloth to avoid dough from getting dry.

Easy, crunchy yet soft and addictive murukku, enjoy with tea or coffee.
