Besan murukku recipe, kadalai maavu murukku

August 19, 2019 by Raks Anand 14 Comments / Jump to Recipe

besan-chakli

Besan murukku is very easy instant snack with just few ingredients. Perfect for tea time snack or any celebration. Full video post.
Besan murukku or besan chakli is a tasty snack that we all love in our family. Usually besan/ kadalai maavu and rice are available all the days at my home. So this comes handy when Aj asks for some snack. he is not big fan of the ribbon pakoda shape, so doing it as murukku make him eat. Sure there is difference as the texture is different.
With Gokulashtami coming up this Friday (23rd Aug), I thought kadalai maavu murukku could come handy to many of you. I always make uppu seedai, vella seedai and kai murukku only. And appam or payasam any one. This year thought should do different from the usual stuffs.

For safety reasons, never roll the last little batter into balls and deep fry. Also be at safe distance always while handling with hot oil and murukku/ seedai. I will try to update more recipes, something easy and instant for the festival, stay tuned. Meanwhile, don’t forget to check the homepage and browse my old Gokulashtami recipes.

Besan murukku is very easy instant snack with just few ingredients. Perfect for tea time snack or any celebration. Full video post.
Course Snack
Cuisine Indian
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Servings 12 murukku
Cup measurements

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 1/2 cup besan

  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ajwain

  • Oil to deep fry

Instructions

  • Take besan, rice flour, asafoetida, turmeric, pepper, butter, salt in a mixing bowl.
  • Pour warm/ hot oil to it. Mix well. Add water and make a soft dough.
  • Use murukku press with star shape holes to make chakli/ besan murukku.
  • I usually grease several ladles and squeeze murukku over it. Later transfer it to oil.
  • Heat oil, once hot, carefully transfer the murukku to it.
  • Deep fry until the bubble sound reduce. Flip and cook in medium to long flame until the bubbles ceases.
  • Drain in paper towel and repeat to finish.

Notes

  • Besan murukku takes time to cook, so make sure to deep fry in low heat for long time to ensure crispy from inside.
  • Use small size holes for best results. If it is thick, it tends to cook for long time which affects the crispiness.

    Raks– please do not care about rude, ungrateful people (Narasimha Mutalik). She or he is a nobody to advise you — you are not that person’s child. If you don’t agree with something another adult does, what gives them the right to advise the other adult? Besides, the person is judging without knowing the background.

    Your recipes and explanations are awesome. I can make things well the first time I try as long as I follow your recipe and explanations. Thank you so much!

    HI,
    I tried the recipe, but when i tried to do it in oil, all the mix split up . What should have gone Wrong?

      Less water (can be fixed if you sprinkle water more and try again) or too coarse flour.
      One more possible reason more butter or oil than mentioned.
