Mullu murukku...(snack)

This is a favorite snack of South India, made mainly from rice flour. You require the

Sevanazhi or the special press or contraption with the different chips to make this snack. 

Ingredients:

1:  Rice flour: 2 cups

2:  Urad flour: 1 cup

3: Sesame seeds:
   (black or white) : 1-2 tbsp

4: Butter: 1/2 a stick or 50 gms

5:  Jeera/ cumin seeds: 1 Tsp

6: Asafoetida/hing: 1/2 tsp

7: Salt: to taste

Mix all the ingredients with melted butter and enough salt an bring it to a soft, thick dough with the smooth consistency to squeeze through the Sevanazhi. It's somewhat like a cookie press. You got to put the right kind of chip in and fill the press with the dough and close it.

Heat enough oil in a pan and when it comes to a boil, squeeze the handle of the press and move it around to create a spiral. Stop the flow when you get 3-4 spirals and make several small ones directly into the boiling oil.

Turn the Murukku around as it starts browning and cooks both sides. Take care not to burn the little spirals. This is a sure treat anytime.
