Description
Thattai Murukku is a popular South Indian savory snack known for its crispy texture and delicious flavor. It’s a staple during festivals like Diwali and is also enjoyed as a teatime snack.
To prepare Thattai Murukku, a dough is made by mixing rice flour, urad dal flour (black gram flour), besan (gram flour), and spices. The spices commonly used include red chili powder, asafoetida (hing), sesame seeds, and salt. Some variations may also include ingredients like grated coconut, roasted chana dal (split chickpeas), or curry leaves for added flavor.
The dough is kneaded with water to form a smooth consistency. Then small portions of the dough are taken and flattened into thin discs or rounds using hands or a rolling pin. These discs are then deep-fried in hot oil until they turn golden brown and crispy.
Once fried, Thattai Murukku is drained on paper towels to remove excess oil and allowed to cool. The end result is a crunchy and flavorful snack that’s perfect for munching on its own or serving with tea or coffee.
Thattai Murukku’s unique texture and spicy taste make it a favorite among snack enthusiasts, and it’s often made in large batches to be shared with family and friends during festive occasions
