ಜೋಳದ ಚಕ್ಕುಲಿ/Jowar Murukku
March 19, 2007 — RoopaMurukku who does not like those crunchy melting murukku, these are one of the Indian savouries which should say is quite famous around the world. This time i try to use jowar flour to make these murukku. They were very crispy and melting as found in those bakeries. But I guess I could have reduced the dalda as it was very flimsy to shift from plate to kadai.
All you need
jowar flour - 3 cups
maida - 1 cup
chilli powder - 2 to 3 tsp
salt and hing to taste
sesame seeds - 1 tbsp
jeera - 1 tbsp
1/4 cup dalda/ghee/butter
-
Sieve the flours together, mix in chilli powder, jeera, seseme, hing and salt
-
heat dalda and add to the flours
-
Add little by little water knead in the doung until a firm dough is formed.
-
Heat oil in a kadai, drizzle oil in the murukku mould to make easier to work while pressing
-
Take a small portion of the dough insert into the mould and press on a plate to make cylindrical circles
-
deep fry the cylindrical circles slowly in medium flame until golden brown.
