Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup fried gram
4 cup rice flour
hing powder a pinch
1 tbsp sesame seeds
3 tsp Salt to taste
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
6 tbsp butter melted
2 cups Water or as needed to knead

Instructions

Powder roasted chana dal first in a mixer.
Sieve it to eliminate the coarse particles. After that, place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
Rub well to mix the ingredients. Then add water to make a smooth dough.
Slightly on the tighter side. Not too tight, it should be easy enough to press.
The reason is we want the butter murukku in strips, not long, broken strips, bite-sized.
So if it but dry, it breaks by itself as we squeeze.
But it's not a must, you can either squeeze a little and use your hands to break or squeeze long strips and break later, or even make murukku shape.
Heat oil and squeeze the murukku using the star-shaped plate in the press.
Cook on medium flame.
Stir in between to flip it and cook both sides.
Drain in paper towel and cool down completely before storing in an airtight container.
You can garnish it with some fried curry.
