Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Asafoetida
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 0 as needed Oil for deep frying
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, asafoetida, and salt.
Step 2
Add the melted coconut oil to the flour mixture and mix it until it resembles crumbly dough.
Step 3
Slowly pour boiling water into the mixture while stirring continuously with a spoon or spatula. Bring the dough together until it is smooth and pliable.
Step 4
Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into thin logs.
Step 5
Shape each log into small rings by joining the ends and pressing gently to seal.
Step 6
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough but not smoking.
Step 7
Gently slide 3-4 murukku rings into the hot oil. Fry them in batches, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Step 8
Remove the fried murukku with a slotted spoon and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 9
Allow the murukku to cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to a week.
