Thenkuzhal is a tasty and crispy snack make from rice and urad dal flour. In this post I am sharing with you Thenkuzhal murukku made with home made murukku mavu/flour and also how to make murukku flour at home.
Ingredients:
- Rice flour/ Idiyappam flour – 2 cups
- Urad dal flour – ¼ cup
- Butter + Oil – 3 tbsp
- Asafoetida – ¼ tsp
- Cumin seeds or sesame seeds – 1 & ½ tsp
- Salt and water – As needed
- Oil – For deep frying
Instructions:
- First, mix rice flour, urad al flour, butter (melted),oil, asafoetida, cumin seeds, salt well and then add water to make a non sticky dough with no cracks.
- Heat oil in kadai side by side, enough to deep fry the murukkus. Fill the murukku press with this dough with murukku hole plate.
- I always grease some ladles and make murukku first in that then drop them in oil. This way we can make decent shapes also our hands wont feel the heat.
- Test if the oil is hot by adding a very tiny pinch of dough to oil. invert the murukku in the ladle gently to oil.
- Deep fry in medium flame.
- Cook both sides till the ‘Shhh’ sound ceases and murukku turn golden in colour.
- Drain in paper towel and cool down completely before storing them in airtight containers.
