Kai murukku (Hand-twisted murukku)

Ingredients
  • 1/2kg rice flour
  • 5 tbsp roasted urad dhal flour
  • 5 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp cumin seeds
  • Salt to taste
  • 1kg cooking oil for frying

    Method
    Mix rice flour, urad dhal flour, butter, cumin seeds and salt and form a dough.

    Take a lump of dough in your fist and using the fingers to push the dough out, form a rope-like pattern, shaping it into a spiral at the same time — you can use a circular board of the desired size as guide. Make five circles for a small spiral and nine circles for a big spiral.

    Each time you run out of dough, take another lump of dough and start again, connecting one end with the other to form a continuous spiral.

    Deep-fry the spirals in a kuali of oil until golden brown on both sides.
