    I thought I will post something for Christmas like last year, but couldn't. So posting at least a snack today that I made for snack.

    I have been always making ribbon murukku with pepper. But few months back when someone reminded me exactly how my mom makes the ribbon murukku.

    Red chillies ground and added, you can see tiny flakes here and there that while eating adds a nice flavour and spicy spike.

    She doesn't add garlic, but lots of asafoetida (perungayam) and with lots of besan than rice flour.

    I added equal proportions of rice flour and besan (kadalai mavu) but FIL suggested to add more of besan than rice flour.

    I am going to try that next time, though pressing would be bit difficult. Used idiyappam flour in place of rice flour as usual.

    This gives whiter results as well as crispier results. You can very well use plain rice flour, but make sure to use good quality, finest in texture.

    Notes

    • You can skip garlic and make.
    • If ribbon murukku breaks while squeezing, try sprinkling more water, knead and try again.
    • Do not add more butter than mentioned, if added, it will dissolve in oil.
    • You can add hot oil in place of melt butter like I did.
    • Rice flour and besan should be fine flour. 
    • To check if oil is heated at right temperature, if you add a small pinch, then it should rise immediately.
    • Oil should not smoke , so regulate the flame now and then.
    • If making in large quantity, prepare dough in batches, otherwise, it will affect texture and colour of the ribbon murukku

        You mean if murukku got more butter and breaks in oil? Add little more flour and sprinkle water to the dough. Knead again and make murukku. Salt also should be adjusted accordingly if more flour is used.
