Before going into the post, the cute bag which I kept the murukku was gifted to me by a sweet reader of mine. Thank you so much, Aarti.
Powder the roasted gram into a fine powder. No need to roast it.
Combine the rice flour, gram flour, and roasted gram flour in a wide bowl and add the cumin seeds asafoetida, and salt. Melt the ghee or butter and add this to the flour. Mix nicely and evenly. Add water little by little and knead it into a pliable dough.
Use the single-star achu and put a portion of the dough in the mould.
Start pressing the murruku in hot oil. Cook till the oil sound subsides.
Take this out from the oil and drain it in a kitchen towel.
Always ensure that the oil is hot. You can enjoy this as a tea-time snack.
