Method

Grind the roasted gram/pottukadalai in a dry mixer to a fine powder. Sieve the pottukadalai flour and keep it aside.

Sieve the rice flour and keep it aside. I used homemade rice flour, you can very well check out the preparation of rice flour here.

Sieve the ragi flour, then dry roast on low flame until it is just warm and switch off the stove.

In a wide bowl add the sieved ragi flour, rice flour, red chilli powder, white sesame seeds, asafoetida/perungayam and salt.

Now add melted butter and mix thoroughly, so that the butter is evenly spread throughout the flour.

Add water little by little and mix the flour together to make soft pliable dough. Add 1 tsp of hot oil and make the dough.

Heat oil in a kadai for frying the murukkus. Grease the murukku press with oil.

Fill the murukku press with dough and close it tightly. You can use star shaped acchu to make this murukku.

Check if the oil is hot enough by dropping very small piece of dough, it it floats on top immediately with a sizzle then the oil is ready.

Press the murukkus on clean ziplocks or on a jalli karandi and transfer it to the oil. You can as well press the murukkus directly into the oil.

Cook on both sides until the ‘shh’ sounds stops. Remove it from oil and drain it on a paper towl.

After the murukkus cool down, transfer it to an airtight container. These murukkus stay good for about 4 weeks.

Similarly make murukku with rest of the dough and store them for later.

Yummy, delicious, crunchy and super tempting Ragi/Kezhvaragu Murukku is ready for neivedhyam or for evening snacks.
