Ingredients

Serves : 4
  • 1 cups semiya /vermicelli


  • 1 3/4 cups rice flour


  • 1/4 cups besan/gram flour


  • 1 tsp ajwain seeds(powder)


  • 2 tsp red chili powder


  • 1 tsp melted butter


  • 1 tsp salt to taste


  • 1 cups oil for deep frying

Directions

  • Soak the vermicelli in water for 1 hours. After one hour, drain the excess water and mash the soaked vermicelli.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine mashed vermicelli, rice flour, gram flour melted butter, salt, ajwain and red chilli powder. Mix well and make a soft dough by adding little water (if required).
  • Heat oil in a kadai, when the oil is hot enough to fry, take a portion of the dough and place it inside the murukku mold (I used 1 star hole disc) and press the mold over the oil. Deep fry them until light golden color on both sides. Once done, remove from the oil and place it on a paper towel to drain off excess oil if any. Repeat the process for the rest of the dough.
  • Allow them to cool down slightly then serve.
  • Note: You can store this murukku in an air tight container.
