Recipe


Murukku also known as Chakli is a savoury snack item. Its a deep fried item which can be made using a Murukku Maker. Chakli is mainly made during festivals or any special occasions but the method below is the quickest way to enjoy Murukku/Chakli with hot Tea on a wet day. As these can be stored for few weeks, this is a perfect home made snack on trips/tours ;)
Makes:	10-12
Preparation Time:	15 mins
Cooking Time:	30 mins
Ingredients:	Rice Flour - 2 Cups
	Urad Dal Flour - 2 tsp
	Butter melted - 2 tsp
	Salt - ½ tsp
	Asafoetida - ¼ tsp
	Cumin Seeds - 1 tsp
	Oil for deep frying
Method:	• Mix all the ingredients using enough Water to make a smooth dough. Knead for about 5 mins, cover and keep it aside. • Now you need a Murukku maker to press the dough into desired shape. • A Murukku maker comes with many attachments, here I have used 1 star attachment. • Firstly fix the 1 star aatachment to the Murukku maker. Brush some Oil on a plastic sheet. • Take a small amount of dough and place it in the Murukku maker. • Next place the other mould (which is used for pressing the dough) on the dough and start pressing the dough on the Oiled sheet. • Now you can see the dough coming out as shaped from the hole. Slightly tilt and move the Murukku maker round and round while pressing so that you make a round shape. • You can make as many spirals as you like. • Meanwhile heat Oil in a frying pan. • Remove these shaped Murukku from the sheet to your hand and then drop them in hot Oil. • Fry them till golden brown and crisp. • Let it cool and store it in air tight containers.
