Murukku = what is known as Chakkri to the Gujjus? @zen @Laaloo Basically besan/gram flour fried as a savoury over groundnut or sesame oil. What oil is used in Tamil Nadu, traditionally speaking, for the Murukku? Laaloo 1

What oil is used in Tamil Nadu, traditionally speaking, for the Murukku? No no no no ... totally incorrect. That may be murukkulu, but not murukku A proper murukku (kai murukku) is made with a rice flour/urad flour blend mixed with water and butter to get a light crispiness. Once the the dough is ready, you take a little piece, put a bit of kumkum on it and save it for Ganapati. Then you hand-twist it into the shape shown below, and deep fry. As for oil, probably peanut oil or sunflower oil in TN, but coconut oil in Kerala. Mariyam 1
vvvslaxman Posted October 31, 2024 Posted October 31, 2024 There are different types of murukku. One that we made was thenkuzhal type BacktoCricaddict and Mariyam 2

What oil is used in Tamil Nadu, traditionally speaking, for the Murukku? Chakli is a Karnataka dish appropriated by Gujjus. They couldn’t make it round, it broke to small pieces. They can’t pronounce the La in ChakLi and replaced it with easier ra! Mariyam 1
