Murukku


I did wanted to make this for a long time, as i my childhood days i liked murukku's tooooo much. But now since a long time, didn't had the homecooked one, only haldiram's,or the local brand,which i don't like at all(actually they use rice as the main ingredient, and being north indian i don't like it much). This time when i went to indian, i again got the oppurtunity to eat it once at my sisters place and my temptation to make it increased more n more.So finally got her recipe, and made it...
Its easy and fast to make, n yum to eat...

Ingredients:

Wheat flour 2 cups
Yellow moong dal 1/3 cup
Oil 2 tbsp
Turmeric powdre 1 tsp
Red chilli powder 1 tsp
Sesame seeds 3 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil for deep frying.

Method:

Take the flour and tie it in a muslin cloth. Steam the same in the pressure cooker .
Soak moong dal and boil it with water till soft and done.
When the pressure of cooker resides, open it , the flour would have been cooked n hardened, break it into pieces, n pass it through seive to get fine powder form again.
Mix all the ingredients and make a bit tough dough out of it.
Put it into to murukku maker and make shapes of murukku , out of it.
Deep fry in oil till golden brown.
