Instant Karnataka Style Chakli Recipe – Simple Murukku Recipe

Instant Chakli recipe - Karnataka style
Instant chakli recipe / Simple murukku recipe with step by step and video. This Karnataka style easy and simple murukku recipe (Chakli in Kannada) using store bought rice flour and besan flour was in my to do list for long time. Recently I got a pack of bull driven cold pressed (Chekku ennai) sesame oil, groundnut oil and coconut oil from Gramiyum – An online store. Product & packaging was too good and its professional too. If you are looking for original cold pressed oils, you can buy them online from Gramiyum. They also have organic honey, natural nuts at a reasonable price. 

My MIL usually says snacks fried in groundnut oil is more flavorful. So I thought of making this easy, Karnataka style chakli/ murukku by frying in cold pressed groundnut oil ( Kadalai ennai).This instant chakli recipe which I had bookmarked years ago from Savi ruchi blog came to my mind. Its an easy, instant chakli recipe made with easily available ingredients. It came out very well with the awesome flavor of groundnut oil. I have tasted this Chakkuli/Chakri ( My friends tell this way) in my friends place. All my friends here make it during Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali and Gokulashtami festivals.

 Basically I love this Karnataka style chakli a lot and got the recipe for homemade chakli powder from my friend Priya. I will share that recipe later. This chakli is made with rice flour and besan flour. Its prepared without butter or ghee. Hot oil is used to bring crunchiness. So it doesn’t have a melt in mouth texture just like butter chakli but tastes crispy and crunchy. It tastes the best with full flavor by the next day. We enjoy this chakli with our evening tea/ chai. 

As its summer vacation in India, Kids must be nagging you for some evening snacks. Do try this easy chakli recipe at home for your kids!They will like it. Please excuse me for the non uniform shapes. I am not so good  or patient enough in pressing murukku. But my MIL says everything comes by practice. So this year, I am planning to try more murukku recipes. Hope I can make perfect swirls in future.
Lets see how to make Karnataka style Instant chakli recipe with step by step pictures and VIDEO.

    Chakli - Instant chakli recipe
  • Heat cooking oil and add it to the flour. Mix with a spoon till oil spreads well in the flour.

  • Add water gradually and make a smooth dough.Make the dough slightly sticky. If the dough is too hard, chakli will break while pressing. Cover the dough with a wet cloth till use. Besan flour in the dough absorbs more water and dough becomes thick over time. So if the chakli breaks while pressing, sprinkle little water to the dough and try again. You will get it right. Sprinkle water whenever needed.

Garlic murukku / Poondu murukku recipe How to make easy garlic murukku with rice flour, besan flour, hot oil and butter
Cuisine: Indian
Category: Snacks
Serves: 12-15 nos
Prep time: 10 Minutes
Cook time: 2 Minutes
Total time: 12 Minutes


INGREDIENTS
1 cup - 250ml
  • Rice flour/Idiyappam flour - 1 cup
  • Besan flour/Kadalai maavu - 1/3 cup
  • Softened butter -  3/4 to 1 tbsp (Unmelted)
  • Hot oil - 1 tsp
  • Salt & water - as needed
  • Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp ( optional)
To grind
  • Garlic cloves - 5 nos
  • Red chillies - 2-3 nos ( I used 2 spicy chillies)
  • Water – 1 tbsp ( To soak)
METHOD

  • Peel garlic cloves.Soak garlic and red chillies in 1tbsp water ( you can use hot water too).Let it soak for 10 minutes. Then grind it to a paste adding the soaked water.It won’t grind to a smooth paste as the quantity is less. So grind it continuously for a minute, wipe the jar and grind it till it turns smooth.Don’t worry , it looks watery after grinding. But make sure there are no garlic pieces or chilli seeds. It may block the chakli nozzle while squeezing.

  • In a wide bowl, take the rice flour, besan flour, salt and sieve it. To this, add softened butter.Heat oil in a mini pan and add 1 tsp hot oil to the murukku mixture. Add ground garlic paste. Mix well to spread the butter and oil with the flour. Check for salt. Add more if needed. Then add water little by little and make a smooth dough. No problem if the dough is slightly sticky.

  • Take the star mould and keep in the murukku press/Chakli press. Fill the mould with the dough and squeeze it to make a round, concentric circle. You can press the murukku in a butter paper or polythene sheet. Cover the remaining dough with a wet cloth or a plastic cover. This dough may tighten over time.So if needed, sprinkle some water, mix well and press it.
    Poondu murukku recipe
  • Heat oil in a kadai and when it gets heated, drop a pinch of dough and if it rises to the top immediately, oil temperature is right. Drop 2-3 murukku in hot oil and cook both the sides till bubbles cease. Remove in a tissue paper. You can also squeeze the murukku directly in oil, cook them and break into pieces just like butter murukku. Either ways would do. In Lakshmi stall, I saw it as pieces/Thool murukku and not as whole ones. So I made a batch in that way too. 
  • Store in an airtight box after cools down. Enjoy for weeks ! This murukku takes time to lend all its flavor. So try to consume the murukku after few hours of making.
    Poondu murukku recipe
    Enjoy !

Note
  • I am not sure about using ghee instead of butter. The color of murukku may vary.
  • You can use red chilli powder instead of red chillies. But grinding garlic would become difficult. In that case, grind garlic as much as possible and strain it adding some water. Add the garlic water to make the dough.
Try this easy, garlic flavored murukku for this Diwali and enjoy !

Magizhampoo Murukku / Mullu Murukku Recipe - Diwali Snacks Recipes

Magizhampoo murukku
I came to know about Magizhampoo murukku/Magizhampoo thenkuzhal after marriage from my MIL. She makes it every year during Diwali. Last year I gave a try on my own. But its color became very dark as I added more sugar & Coconut milk. This year I referred this recipe and gave a try.It came out very well and crunchy.The addition of moong dal flour, sugar candy( Kalkandu) and coconut milk is the highlight of magizhampoo murukku. Some people who don’t like sweet taste in murukku avoid using sugar. It tastes good in either ways. But I love the mild sweetness in this mullu murukku more than plain salted ones. So its purely our choice. Lets see how to make magizhampoo murukku in detail !

Manapparai Murukku Recipe - Arisi Murukku - Diwali Snacks Recipe

Manapparai murukku recipe

Manapparai Arisi murukkku/ Rice murukku is one of the most famous snacks recipes of Tamil nadu. Recently I had a trip to Kumbakonam temples Via Trichy. While we were returning to Bangalore, I saw some people selling Manapparai Murukku near Trichy toll booth. They were sold from a small cottage industry in Manapparai. It was super crunchy in taste and looked white in color. I shared a picture of it in my Instagram and facebook pages while eating. I won’t say that the murukku had a melt in mouth texture with lots of butter. It sure tested the strength of our teeth but quiet addictive to eat. After tasting that murukku, I got tempted to try my hands on it and I reserved a pack of murukku for comparison. 

I also referred Hindu Food safari section and came to know the history of this murukku.Luckily my MIL showed me its original recipe in Thozhi Tamil magazine. My FIL clicked those pages and mailed me as well. When I saw the ingredients I was surprised that manapparai murukku is made of only rice flour/Arisi maavu and there was no urad dal flour or gram dal flour used in it. I followed the same recipe. The result was awesome. It came out 90% closed to the ones I tasted. That 10% difference is due to the oil I used & my murukku mould. My murukku was thicker than the store bought ones as my mould was big. I should have used groundnut oil / Kadalai ennai to get the same taste but I had used refined oil.Moreover the actual recipe called for deep frying twice.B ut I din’t do that. I am planning to make it again for Diwali using my small mould and ground nut oil for frying. I will try to update the pictures too. Now lets see how to make the most popular Manapparai murukku recipe.

Manapparai Murukku Recipe How to make manapparai special rice murukku
Cuisine: Indian
Category: Snacks
Serves: 12 nos
Prep time: 10 Minutes
Cook time: 20 Minutes
Total time: 30 Minutes


INGREDIENTS
1 cup = 200 ml
  • Rice flour - 1 cup(Homemade or store bought)
  • Melted Butter at room temperature - 1 tbsp ( butter should not be hot, unmelted soft butter at room temp also works)
  • Ajwain/Omam - 1/4 tsp
  • Black sesame seeds - 1/2 tsp
  • Asafetida / Hing - 1/4 tsp
  • Salt & water - as needed
  • Cooking oil – to deep fry
How to make manapparai murukku - METHOD
  • Take the rice flour in a wide bowl. I have tried it both homemade & store bought rice flours. Both worked out well. To the rice flour add sesame seeds,  melted butter, ajwain and salt.
  • Make a crumbly mixture. Add the required water and make a smooth dough. Keep it covered till use.
Manapparai murukku
  • Take the star murukku mould and fill it with the dough. Make shapes in the back of ladle or a polythene sheet or cotton cloth. I kept the original murukku nearby and tried to bring the same shape for the first batch. But I din’t like its swirls. So I pressed like usual round mullu murukku for the remaining batches.
Manapparai murukku
Manapparai murukku
  • Heat oil in a kadai and check its temperature by dropping a pinch of dough. If it rises to the top immediately , oil temperature is just right. Oil should not be smoking hot.Reduce the flame to low and put 3-4 murukku.
  • Cook both the sides till all the bubbles cease. Make sure the heat of the flame is low to medium. This murukku takes more time to cook. So deep fry them patiently to achieve the white color. Else murukku will turn golden brown. At the same time, if the oil temperature is not sufficient, murukku will absorb more oil. So adjust the heat and make the murukku in batches. ( If you wish, you can deep fry the murukku for the second time after 2-3 minutes of resting time. It makes the murukku even more crunchy)
Manapparai murukku
  • Store in an air tight box after it cools down completely. The actual taste of this murukku can be found the next day. It stays good for weeks if stored properly. Enjoy !
Note
  • If you wish you can add a tbsp of urad dal flour or gram dal flour for 1 cup of rice flour. But it changes the flavor of actual Manapparai murukku.
  • You can replace butter with vanaspati , ghee or hot oil.
  • This murukku tends to be crunchy and not with melt in mouth texture.

Enjoy making this crunchy murukku at home for this Diwali ! நல்லா நொறுக்குங்க !!
