With stuck at home, we need as many snacks as possible however I am not making too much healthy but tried this. There was no red chilli powder at home, so thought I can try this. This came out really good and crunchy. Perfect for even little kiddos. The recipe is simple. Next time I would like to try with baking (not sure how the taste goes, but nothing harm in trying one set).
Ingredients
Rice Flour - 3 cups
Besan - 2-3 tablespoons (big scoops)
Jeera powder
Butter - 1 stick (you can add less if you want)
Salt to taste
Pepper powder
Sesame seeds
Warm/Hot water
Method of preparation
Take all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the room temperature butter into this. Mix it well withe flour. Start adding hot water little by little and make it a soft dough just like any other murukku/sev batter.
Keep the oil ready. Once the oil is hot, use the single star kind in muruku maker and start pouring the shape either in oil or you can make hte shapes on a plate and drop them one by one. Once they turn golden color, dry them on the paper towel and store them in air tight container.
TIPS
(1) you can add cold water also, but adding hot/warm water gives it more crispiness I feel.
(2) Add Ajwain if you want to
(3) Sesame seeds are optional
