My son is a huge fan of this and we used to call this thenkuzhal as murruku. I made this for my uncle’s family, who are in Malaysia when I visited them last week.I always make this with rice flour and urad dhal flour, this time I used idiyappam flour instead of rice flour. It tasted very yummy. I learnt this recipe from my Mother-in-law. Check out my full collection of Diwali recipes. If you have the option of a rice mill near your place, grind 6 cups of raw rice or parboiled rice(not idli rice) and 1 cup of urad dal into a fine powder. No need to roast the ingredients. This flour can be stored for 6 months in the refrigerator.
METHOD:
Mix all the ingredients, except oil and water, nicely.
Take a portion of this and add water to it to make it dough. The dough consistency should be a little looser than the chapati dough.
Fix the murukku presser using the mould shown in the picture.
Fill the murukku presser with the dough and close it. Heat a kadai with oil. When it becomes hot, press the mould, and put small circles. When it is done on one side, just flip it with a ladle.
When the oil stops bubbling and the sound stops, just take it out from the oil and transfer it to a kitchen towel. Store it in an airtight container.
Enjoy murrukku with a cup of tea.
Note: 4. If you have a rice mill in your place, grind raw rice along with urad dal and make thenkuzhal out of this.
