Wishing
all my friends, readers a very Happy Diwali and a year filled with happiness,
success and prosperity. Have a safe and wonderful Diwali….
Having
said that the past couple of days I was so busy with shopping, cooking, meeting
friends, prayers etc. could not find time to blog. I made lot of snacks and
sweets of which I am going to share Pasiparuppu Murukku/Moong dal Murukku with you all. A
very crispy, quick and easy murukku when you are really pressed on time.
Here’s
how to make Pasiparuppu Murukku/Moongdal Murukku with step by step photos…
Ingredients
2 cups
|
|
Moong Dal
|
½ cup
|
Sesame seeds/Ellu
|
2 tsp
|
Cumin seeds/Jeeragam
|
1 tsp
|
Butter [melted]
|
1 ½ tbsp
|
Salt
|
As needed
|
Oil
|
For Frying

Method
Wash the
moong dal, add 2 ½ cups of water and pressure cook the dal for 3 whistles or
until really soft. After the steam
releases, mash the dal really well and let it cool.
In a
wide vessel add rice flour, cooked moong dal, sesame seeds, cumin seeds,
butter, salt and mix really well. Add required amount of water to make soft
dough.
Grease
the murukku press with oil and use thenkuzhal achhu or star achhu or achhu with
many holes to make the murukku. I used the ones with many holes to make
murukkus.
Heat
oil in a kadai to fry the murukkus. Fill the murukku press with murukku dough
and close it tightly.
Check
if the oil is hot enough by dropping very small piece of dough, if it floats on
top immediately with a sizzle then the oil is ready.
Press
the murukkus on jalli karandi or clean ziplocks and transfer it to the oil,
when using thenkuzhal or star achhu. I pressed the murukkus directly to the
oil.
Cook
the murukku on both sides until the “shh” sound stops. Remove it from oil and
drain it on a paper towel.
After
the murukkus cool down, transfer them to an air tight container.
Delicious,
crispy and crunchy murukku is ready to be enjoyed.
Suggestions:
- I have used both sesame seeds and cumin seeds, you can either use sesame seeds or cumin seeds. It is totally your choice.
- Don’t add more butter then mentioned because the murukkus will become soggy.
- You can make it little spicy by adding ½ tsp of crushed pepper powder.
- When making in large quantities, cover the dough with damp cloth so that it will not get dry.
