Butter Murukku


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

Pita wrap


I used store bought lot of items to combine this together and have a quick bite for dinner. I made some cilantro kind of rice and crumbled one falafel into it also to give it a little notch up. I used the tzaziki sauce (home made - mid Yogurt/Curd, Salt, Lemon, grated cucumber), hot sauce(you can use any but I used the sri racha), and store bought falafels along with Hummas and made a little cucumer and tomato salad (Add finely chopped cucumbers, tomato, salt and coriander).

Heat up the pita slightly (toasting level). Then add the 1 scoop of rice in middle. Add cucumber and tomato salad. Add the falafels on top of it. Drizle the sauces on top (tzaziki and hot sauce). Roll and enjoy.
