SALT TO TASTE
ASAFOETIDA - 1/3 TSP

Method
Sieve the rice flour and chickpea flour using a fine sieve. Add the spices (salt, red chilli powder, asafoetida, khus khus or sesame seeds) and mix the dry ingredients thoroughly.
Now add a ladle of warm oil and spread it evenly throughout the dry flour mixture without lumps.This step is crucial since it helps in making the murukku crisp during the frying process.
Mix the dough with lukewarm water to a soft consistency, it should hold its shape.
Heat oil in a shallow pan to medium heat and add a tiny ball of the dough to it. If it floats to the top instantly, then your oil is ready for frying.
Use a murukku press with a long slit for this shape, press out one batch at a time and fry ( keep medium flame) till light golden brown.
Remove and store it in airtight container. It will easily stay for a week. Your murukku is now ready for use.
