Murukku Recipe

In this episode, Vanitha Perumal shows us how to make Murukku. We're so used to just buying it that we fail to realize the work that goes into making it. Enjoy.
Ingredients (Makes a dozen):
- Approximately 1 cup, Water
- 1 teaspoon, whole jeera
- 2 cups, maize flour
- 1 teaspoon, salt
- Oil
Equipment: Murukku maker
Method:
1) Sift the maize flour and add the salt and jeera thereafter.
2) Add a little boiling water at a time and stir until you end up with a thick/firm paste as it needs to hold its shape.
3) Fill the murukku maker and pipe it into a pot of oil on medium heat.
4) Allow it to fry until golden brown.

Is maize flour maize meal like Ace and white star? Could I use polenta

[@tribalpeacock]

Maize flour is corn flour, not maize meal. If you use maize meal, the murkoo comes out very hard.

@@tribalpeacock thank you...so maizena, Right

[@tribalpeacock]

@@chantelnaidoo5002 I think so, but if you have an Indian grocer or spice shop nearby, ask them for maize flour or murkoo flour.

[@chantelnaidoo5002]

@@tribalpeacock there is corn flour here. Will try it and see how it comes out. Thank you for your advice 😃

[@tribalpeacock]

@@chantelnaidoo5002 Good luck. Let us know how it turns out. Rice flour is also an option for a lighter murkoo. I haven't tried it personally but others have said so.

You make have difficulty getting the perfect pattern the murku machine twists and causes mixture to come out accurately
