Chakli

Chakli/ Muruku is favorite in every hold. And every regional has their own way to prepare these crispy anytime snack. This  recipe is from my MIL's kitchen. Extremly easy to make and light on hand. It is made from Rice flour instead of using Bhajni( mix of various lentils and rice) which could be time consuming. 



Ingrediants

3 Cup Rice flour
1/2 cup Curd
2-3 tbsp Ginger chili paste
1 tsp Salt
2 tbsp Melted Ghee / clarifed butter
water/ Buttermilk as needed to Knead the dough
1 tbsp Sesame seeds

Procedure

Take a mixing bowl. Add all the above mentioned ingredients and make a soft dough. Let it rest for about 20 mins. 





In addition to above ingredients you may add some cumin coriander powder or any spice as per your flavoring. I just kept it simple.

You would need a tool like this to make the chakli. 



Now make these rounds/ curls. Take a small portion of the dough. make a log and put it in the machine




Seal the edges. You may choose to bake them for about 30 mins at 350F. I did the traditional method to deep fry them.




You need to fry them on medium flame. Drain of the excess oil in the tissue. 



Once its completely cooled , store them in air tight container and Njoy for coming weeks.
