Butter Murukku - माखन मुरुक्कू and A Wonderful Gift

Hello friends,


A Wonderful Gift


I received this wonderful gift from an amazing blog friend Champa. Few days ago, she said she will be giving away a book and little did I know that I will one of the receipients. Right now, my son (5 yr old) is scanning through the pics and deciding what he would like me to make... lol :)






Butter Murukku - माखन मुरुक्कू 


OK, so, this is my son's absolute favorite in snack along with Nimki. I wanted to try an easy version, so went with Butter Murukku as described in the link. I following the exact same procedure as mentioned in the recipe and what a result, my son absolutely loved it and wanted me to experiment with different moulds in the murukku maker. Yes, finally I borrowed it from one my dear friends Raji and tried this version as I lost mine during one of my moves. Next time I go to India, this is something I HAVE to buy and get back along with few other gadgets.




Now that I tried this, I want to experiment with some other varieties of murukku (meaning different combination of ingredients). And, my personal absolutele favorites is that of urad dal (Skinned Split Black Lentils). My best friend's mother makes them such that they will melt in your mouth. I have to somehow get that recipe and try it out.


Till my next experiment with murukku enjoy these and take care.
