      Hi Aarthi, I regularly follow your blog and I really appreciate ur efforts towards this, that too with a baby around...
      I have a general question here
      Every time I make murukku the murukku ends up bursting and spilling oil all over, I use rice flour, urad flour and black sesame seeds for making regular murukku.. Can you please share some tips to avoid bursting
      Also please provide tips for getting white crispy murukku...
      I am out of India and just disparate in making them for this Diwali..
      Thanks in advance !

      @AnonymousThere should be no water content in the dough..If you make the dough smooth and perfect. then it wont burst...

      Hi Aarthi.... Instead of gram flour, can we use urad dhal flour as we do in ordinary murukku

      Thanks
