Goodbye Gluten: Mullu Murukku

Every year during Diwali, it is a tradition in our family to make patchanam, which is a variety of quality Indian snacks for all of our friends and family. We take this opportunity to bond with the people around us and celebrate the festival of lights.

Now, I am the biggest sweet tooth, and I wouldn’t look twice at the savory snacks prepared. I would go straight for the sweets, but Diwali wouldn’t be complete without the Murukku. Mullu Murukku is a popular snack made of deep-fried rice or dal flour. There are many variations of this snack and it can be tailored to your own taste.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups of rice flour
  • 1 cup Moong dal flour 
  • ¼ cup channa dal flour
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 ½ tbs butter
  • ¼ tsp Asafoetida
  • ¼ tsp Sesame seeds
  • Oil to deep fry

Directions

  • Slightly toast your moong dal flour for 2 minutes on a low flame to get rid of the raw smell of the lentil
  • In a large bowl sift together all the flours
  • Add salt to taste, the Asafoetida, sesame seeds, and butter
  • Knead the flour and add little water until you have a dough
  • Now to get the classic shape of Mullu Murukku, you’re going to need the Murukku press
  • Put a small ball of dough into the press and squeeze directly into the preheated oil in a circular motion
  • Deep fry for 1-2 minutes on each side and drain the excess oil on a paper towel
