Mullu Murukku (Cheer)

How to Prepare

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine rice flour, urad dal flour, besan, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, asafoetida, and salt.
2. Add softened butter to the dry mixture and mix well until it resembles breadcrumbs.
3. Gradually add water, little by little, to form a soft, non-sticky dough.
4. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
5. Fill the murukku press with the dough and press it directly into the hot oil in a circular motion to form spiral shapes.
6. Fry the murukku until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking (about 3-4 minutes per batch).
7. Remove using a slotted spoon and drain excess oil on paper towels.
8. Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
