Rice Murukku is a popular South Indian snack made from rice flour and urad dal flour, seasoned with spices like cumin, sesame seeds, and sometimes hing (asafetida). Shaped into spirals or coils and deep-fried until crispy, it offers a delightful crunch and mild spiciness. Originating from Indian cuisine, it is often enjoyed during festivals and special occasions. While rice murukku is gluten-free and provides quick energy through its carbohydrate content, it is deep-fried, which makes it high in fat and calories. Moderation is key to balancing its nutritional impact. The inclusion of urad dal adds a touch of protein, and the sesame seeds are a source of healthy fats and calcium. Rice murukku is best enjoyed as an occasional treat, paired with tea or coffee.
