| Coconut Milk Murukku Recipe |
Ingredients:
| Parboiled Rice | 2 Cups** |
| Coconut Milk | 1 Cup |
| Urdal Powder | 2 teaspoon |
| Salt | To taste |
| Cumin Seeds | 1/2 teaspoon |
| Oil | For Deep frying |
* 1Cup = 250ml
I have given the instant method of making these murukku at the end of this post.
Method:
- Rinse and Soak the rice in water for atleast 1 hour. Take the coconut milk in a vessel and heat it in low flame. When the coconut milk starts to boil, remove from flame and allow it to cool.
- Grind the rice in a mixer or grinder by adding the coconut milk at regular intervals and grind it to a smooth paste. The batter should be thick. So don't add the coconut milk at once. Add it at regular intervals and see if the batter is thick. Add salt, cumin seeds and mix well. Take a press and mould (I have used one-star mould), and add one-handfull of the ground rice batter. In a clean white cloth, using a press and mould, squeeze the batter and make the murukku. Allow the murukku to dry for atleast 5 minutes in the cloth.
- Meanwhile, heat a pan of oil, when the oil is hot enough, keep the flame medium. Gently remove the murukku from the cloth and add it to the pan. We can add 3-4 murukku in one batch depending upon the oil we have added to the pan. Deep fry the murukku on both the sides till they turn cripy and golden brown color. Remove the murukku from oil and place it in a strainer or paper towel to drain excess oil. Repeat the step for rest of the batter.
- The crispy and crunchy coconut milk murukku is ready to serve!
