-
Add rice flour in a wide bowl and add salt as per taste, red chilli powder (we can substitute with green chilli paste), sesame seeds, carom seeds and fresh butter.
-
Mix all ingredients, if butter is in a solid state let it remain at room temperature for a while.
-
Add water in small portions and knead the dough for 5 minutes till its texture turn soft. Keep aside.
-
Heat oil in a pan at medium to high flame. On another side grease the murukku moulds with oil and make a small lump of batter and put it in the mould.
-
Once the oil is ready, put a small lump of batter to check the oil temperature. If it raises immediately then the oil is ready.
-
Press rice flour murukku directly in oil or on a plate and slide it into the oil.
-
Deep fry for a minute and then flip to another side. As we are making with rice flour, it turns crisp easily so it's enough if the colour changes to a mild golden brown.
