It turned crunchy and I felt really good. I&#8217;d tried making murukku twice before- once with rice flour and urad dal flour and the second time I added beetroot puree to the rice flour. Both kinds turned out great. So, this time I made the dough using rice flour and besan or gram flour.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, different kinds of flour can be used for making the murukku dough and the dough is made into coil shapes using a mould and then deep fried. You will have an amazing Crunchy snack time with these murukku&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/beetroot-murukku-south-indian-crunchy-snack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beetroot Murukku recipe, click here<\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/murukku-crispy-south-indian-snack-gluten-free\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Murukku made with Rice and Urad Dal flour recipe, click here<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23653\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Murukku.jpg\" alt=\"murukku\" width=\"475\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Murukku.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Murukku-133x200.jpg 133w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rotating Mould used for making Murukku<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11720\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/murukku-mold.jpg\" alt=\"murukku mold\" width=\"475\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/murukku-mold.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/murukku-mold-133x200.jpg 133w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Star shaped disc<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11721\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/mold.jpg\" alt=\"mold\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/mold.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/mold-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/mold-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe mceNonEditable\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Rice-and-Gram-Flour-Murukku.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Rice and Gram Flour (Besan) Murukku<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\"><span class=\"xlate\">Recipe Type<\/span>: <span class=\"type\">Snack<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cuisine: <span class=\"cuisine\">Indian<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Thasneen<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Prep time: <time itemprop=\"prepTime\" datetime=\"PT15M\">15 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cook time: <time itemprop=\"cookTime\" datetime=\"PT40M\">40 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Total time: <time itemprop=\"totalTime\" datetime=\"PT55M\">55 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Serves: <span class=\"yield\">12<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Rice Flour, roasted- 1 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Gram Flour or Besan or Chickpea flour- 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Sesame seeds- 1 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Chili powder- 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Salt- 3\/4 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Asafoetida- 2 pinches (optional)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Oil- 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Water- 1\/2 cup + 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Oil- enough for deep frying<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">In a large bowl, sieve rice flour and gram flour together without any lumps.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add sesame seeds, chili powder, salt, and asafoetida if using, combine well.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add 2 tbsp oil and combine well.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add water little by little and knead the flour mix well till it turns into a soft dough.
