Finally i finished my diwali recipes. I have packed them and have gifted it to friends as well. Now i am gonna help my mom in making her diwali recipes..In the mean time i am rushing up with my post so i can share all the recipes which i made before diwali..

This is one recipe which i came across when i was browsing through my reader. It impressed me so much and i made it instantly..
This murukku is so easy to make but extremely crunchy. Loved it so much. You can make it whatever shape you like too, using different press.
Hope you will try this out and let me know how it turned out for you..

Preparation Time : 10 mins
Cooking Time : 1 to 2 mins per batch
Makes : 20 murukku

Ingredients:
Rice Flour / Arisi Mavu – 1 cup
Oats – 1/4 cup ( I used my 1/2 cup of OATS FLOUR )
Roasted Gram Dal / Pottu Kadalai – 1/4 cup
Chilli Powder – 1 tsp
Sesame Seeds – 1 tsp
Cumin Seeds / Jeerakam – 1/2 tsp
Asafoetida / Hing / Kaya Podi – a pinch
Salt to taste
Oil for Deep frying + 2 tsp
Water as needed
Method:
Take oats in a dry pan and roast it. Now take it in a blender along with roasted gram dal and powder it finely. Now pour this in a sieve and sift it. 
Add in rice flour and all the other ingredients except oil and knead it well.
Now heat 2 tsp of oil till smoking and pour this over the dough and mix well.
Now put the dough into your favourite press and make small murukku.
Heat oil for deep frying. Drop murukku in and fry till the shh sound subsides from the oil. Drain it.
Let it cool. Store it in a air tight container.

    Hi, I love trying ur recipe.
    When I tried this oats murukku first time it came out just perfect. Very crispy..it was the best chakli..
    Today I tried it again,wanted in bulk so I took thrice the qty mentioned. But it didn't come out very crispy. Half of it turned crispy n some of it was soft from inside. What could have gone wrong.. pls advise.
    Thanks.
