    Ingredients

    The following are the ingredients needed to prepare around 8-10 medium sized Kai Murukku,

    • Raw rice - 1 1/2 cup (rice flour - 2 cups)
    • Urad dal - 4 tablespoons (Urad dal flour - 2 tablespoons)
    • Water - 1/2 or as required for dough
    • Butter - 1/2 tablespoon
    • Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon 
    • Asafoetida/Hing - a pinch
    • Salt - as required
    • Oil - as required for deep fry.

    Preparation Steps

    For preparing dough:

    Rice flour :

    • Rinse and soak around one and a half a cup of raw rice in water for about 1-2 hours, drain the water and dry them using a white cloth for a few minutes.
    • Grind them into fine powder, sieve and take two cups of this flour for preparing Kai murukku.

    Urad dal flour:

    • Dry roast around four tablespoons of urad dal for a couple of minutes until it turns light brown.
    • Grind this into fine flour. Sieve and take two tablespoons for preparing Kai Murukku
    1. Take a large bowl, add two cups of rice flour, two tablespoons of urad dal flour, cumin seeds, asafoetida, salt and butter. Give it a good mix.
    2. Add water and knead well. Manage the consistency by adding water as required for a soft dough. 
    3. It needs to be slightly sticky and soft.

    For preparing Kai murukku:

    1. Take a heavy bottomed pan, add oil as required for deep fry and let it heat at medium flame.
    2. Meanwhile, grease your hands, take a medium portion of the dough and start to make the muruku on a white cloth. 
    3. Use the thumb and index finger and twist the dough in round/spiral shape. You can use a bottle cap and twirl around it to get a uniform round shape. 
    4. From two to nine it can have any number of layers/circles. To get a perfect circle, make sure the starting point and ending point are parallel to each other, that is start and end at the same line. Also don't forget to seal the end so that it sticks together.
    5. Once the oil is hot use a spatula to take these and gently drop it in the pan. 
    6. You can fry more than one at a time based on the pan size.
    7. Once it starts to float up, flip to cook it evenly on both sides.
    8. You can remove when the bubbles stop and place it on a strainer or tissue paper to remove excess oil.
    9. Repeat the process for the remaining dough. Make sure you don't let the dough dry out, it is important to have moisture to get the shape right.
    10. Once it is done, this can be stored in an airtight container and can stay crisp for  around ten days.

    Kai Murukku Recipe Preparation Steps

    Kai Murukku, a delightful and crunchy South Indian snack, is an absolute favorite among snack enthusiasts. Preparing this traditional dish might seem daunting at first, but with the right Kai Murukku recipe preparation steps, you can master it effortlessly. Begin by gathering your ingredients, which typically include rice flour, urad dal flour, sesame seeds, and a mix of spices. To achieve that signature murukku texture, it’s essential to soak the urad dal for a few hours before grinding it into a smooth batter. Mixing the flours, along with a pinch of asafoetida and salt, helps create a flavorful base that will make the murukku irresistible once cooked.

    Once your dough is ready, the next crucial step in the Kai Murukku recipe preparation steps involves shaping the murukku. Using a traditional murukku maker or a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle, carefully shape the dough into circular spirals on a clean, flat surface. Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to ensure a crispy finish. Fry the shaped murukku in small batches until they turn golden brown and crispy. Allow them to cool on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil. This snack is perfect for evening tea, celebrations, or as a delightful gift for friends and family. By following these simple Kai Murukku recipe preparation steps, you’ll create a snack that is sure to impress and satisfy cravings!
