Red Rice Murukku

Crunchy munchy murukkus are always my teddies favourite,i do quite often varieties of these crispy beauties whenever we feel like munching some.My mom passed me a packet of  red rice flour few days back, actually i want to make some string hoppers with this red rice flour,since i never tried anything with this red rice flour i went for making out some crispy murukkus.I prepared this murukku blindly without any idea,but finally i was surprised that these murukkus turned out super crispy and quite addictive, we just loved it.If you wanted to experiment with this red rice flour, i'll advice you to try out these yummy crispies..


2cups Gram flour
1+1/2cups  Red Rice flour
1tbsp Butter (room temperature)
2tbsp Sesame seeds
1/2tsp Asafoetida powder
Salt
Oil for deep frying

Take the gram flour,red rice flour,butter, sesame seeds, asafoetida powder and salt in a large bowl, mix everything for a while,now add water to turn them as soft and smooth dough..

Take the murukku press with your choice of nozzle,meanwhile heat the oil for deepfrying,squeeze out directly the murukku dough to the hot oil, fry until the bubbles gets off.Drain the murukkus with paper towel,store them in an air tightened box.

Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee..

Murukku is a popular snack we eat during Chinese New Year. I haven't tried red rice flour before. Though I'm not a big fan of deep frying food, I don't mind to munch some. ;)
