About Andhra muruku
Andhra Muruku, a crunchy, spiral-shaped snack, originates from South Indian cuisine, particularly Andhra Pradesh. Made primarily from rice flour and urad dal flour, it incorporates sesame seeds, cumin, and chili powder for added flavor. The dough is seasoned, shaped using a press, and deep-fried to golden perfection. Its light, crisp texture makes it a popular choice for festive occasions and tea-time indulgence. Rich in carbohydrates, Andhra Muruku provides quick energy, but its deep-frying process contributes to a higher fat content, which may not be ideal for those seeking low-calorie options. However, the use of protein-packed urad dal and sesame seeds adds nutritional benefits, such as improved digestion and essential minerals. Moderation is key when enjoying this traditional snack, balancing its irresistible taste with mindful consumption for better health.
