About Chakri murukku

Chakri Murukku is a popular snack originating from Indian cuisine, particularly famous in South India and parts of Gujarat. This crispy, spiral-shaped treat is made from a blend of rice flour and black gram (urad dal) flour, seasoned with spices like cumin, sesame seeds, and sometimes chili powder for added flavor. The dough is shaped into coils and deep-fried until golden brown, giving it its characteristic crunch. While Chakri Murukku is gluten-free and provides energy from carbohydrates, its deep-fried nature means it is high in calories and fat, which should be consumed in moderation. It offers a small amount of protein from the lentil flour and can be a source of iron from ingredients like sesame seeds. Ideal as a festive or occasional indulgence, this savory delight combines taste with tradition but is best balanced with fresh, wholesome foods.
