Pasiparuppu Murukku/ Moong dal Murukku

Moong dal murukku is a very easy recipe.When I tried it for the first time, I found it to be very simple one. Of course its healthier compared to using besan flour.



Ingredients:

• Moong dal - 3/4 cup
• Rice flour - 2 cups
• Chilly powder - 1/2 tsp
• Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
• Asafoedita
• Salt
• Oil
• Water

 

Method:

Wash moong dal in water and soak for 20 mins.

Pressure cook the moong dal until its mushy. 

In a bowl add the boiled dal , rice flour, chilly powder , cumin seeds, asafodita and salt.

Mix it well. Add water and make the flour into a chapati like dough..

Heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan, and when the oil is hot add a little piece of dough to check for the heat. When the dough raises immediately then the oil is ready for frying.

Put 1 hand full of dough in a press, and close the press with star mould. Squeeze the dough to a big circle.

Deep fry the murukku in medium flame till it is crisp and turns golden brown color.

Take it out and place it in a oil strainer with a paper towel to remove excess oil and allow it to cool.

Store it in a air tight container and serve.
