This is an awesome recipe,with cooked rice and

roasted gram dal.

I just tried a small quantity, with my changes

and within minutes the whole bunch of crunch

disappeared.

So do try this easy murukku prepared by left

over rice and enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

1 cup cooked rice

1/2 cup roasted gram dal

6 dry red chillies /1 tblsp chilli flakes

1/2 tsp cummin powder (I always have roasted

cummin +curry leaves powder separately)

salt to taste.

A few sesame seeds

A pinch of asafoetida

METHOD

First powder the roasted gram dal fine and set

aside ( sieve for fine press).

Next grind the cooked rice to a fine paste, with

chillies.

Mix the rest of the ingredients and knead to a

soft dough. Add little water if needed.

Insert portions of the dough into a murukku

press and make swirls into the oil directly or on

the back of a slotted spoon ,and drop into the

oil.

Fry till the bubbles in the oil slows down and

the chakli is golden brown.
