This crispy snack combines the rich aroma of small onions (shallots) with perfectly seasoned rice flour, making it an ideal treat for tea-time or festive occasions.

Ingredients Required for Small Onion Murukkulu

To prepare this delicious South Indian snack, you’ll need simple yet flavorful ingredients: rice flour, gram flour (besan), finely chopped small onions (shallots), cumin seeds, sesame seeds, red chili powder, butter, salt, and water. The small onions add a mild sweetness and unique depth of flavor that makes this murukkulu stand out from regular varieties. Using fresh and high-quality ingredients ensures a crisp texture and authentic taste.

Step-by-Step Preparation Method

Start by mixing rice flour and gram flour in a large bowl. Add finely chopped small onions, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, chili powder, salt, and a spoonful of butter. Mix everything thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined. Gradually add water to form a soft dough. Take a murukku maker, grease it lightly, and fill it with the prepared dough. Press the dough into spiral shapes on a greased plate or parchment paper. Heat oil in a deep pan and fry the murukkulu on medium flame until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain excess oil on paper towels.

Tips for Perfect South Indian Style Murukkulu

For best results, ensure the dough is neither too soft nor too hard, as this affects the shape and texture. Finely chopping the small onions helps distribute the flavor evenly throughout the murukkulu. Frying on medium heat is crucial to achieve a crispy texture without burning. At VJM Foods, we follow traditional techniques to maintain authenticity and taste in every bite, making our snacks a favorite among customers in Hyderabad.
