BADAM MURUKKU / ALMOND MURUKKU

Hey all ! Today's post is going to be about a 

popular south indian snack "muruku" :-)

There are different types of muruku made

with different ingredients but the base ingredient is 

always rice flour.. I made it with almonds..Lets enjoy :-)

BADAM MURUKKU RECIPE:
Recipe Cuisine : Indain / Recipe category : Snack
Prep time : 15 mins / Cook time : 20 mins
INGREDIENTS:
Rice Flour : 1/2  cup
Badam / Almonds : 8 pcs
Salt : as required
Water : as required
Hing : 1 pinch
Jeera / cumin seeds whole : 1 tblsp
Oil : As required (for frying & for the dough)
METHOD:
Soak badam for an hour or microwave it for couple
of mins and remove the skin. Add water & grind it
to smooth paste.

 Now in a bowl, take rice flour, jeera whole, hing & salt.

 Then add a tblsp of hot oil. Slowly add the badam mixture to this
and knead the dough. Add water if required.

 Now choose the design of your choice from murukku press.
I selected the below one in the pic. Assemble the murukku press
and fill it with dough as shown in the pics below.

 Now heat oil in medium flame. Mean while prepare the murukku
and place it on tray with aluminium foil as shown in the pics below.

 Now, once the oil is hot transfer the murukku and fry it. Once
done the murukku will float and will be golden brown in colour.
Transfer it to a tray with tissue paper or kitchen towel. Let it
cool down then only it will be crispy & crunchy.

 Enjoy crispy & crunchy badam murukku with tea or coffee :-)

 NOTES:
* The dough should be soft and firm and not sticky.
If not the murukku will drink more oil & become soggy
* Instead of almonds, cashew can also be used.
* If the dough is too hard add tsp of oil or butter to make
it soft.
* Grind almonds without any lumps. If not, it will get
stuck in the murukku press.
* Oil should be hot & in medium flame throughout
the process.
* For my non-tamil speaking friends, "murukku"
means twisted. This snack is twisted in shape & hence
it is called as "Murukku":-)
