muruku..

The other day, my mother in law gave us some muruku that was enjoyed especially by my daughter. I was very shocked to learn that my mother in law made the muruku her-self. It never occurs to me that you could make your own muruku.

This is my version of her muruku recipe:


Ingredients:

a- 1 pack (500g) of muruku flour
b- 3/4 pack (375g) of glutinous rice flour
c- 2 teaspoon of white sesame seed
d- 1 teaspoon of caraway seed (rempah jemuju)
e- 1 teaspoon salt (or adjust to taste)
f- curry leaves to taste (blended)
g- 2 eggs
h- chili paste (to taste)
i- 600ml boxed coconut milk
j- 2 1/2 cup of water
k- oil for frying

Method:

1- combine all dry ingredient in a big bowl and mix thoroughly.
2- beat the eggs in a bowl, and add the chili paste and the coconut milk.
3- mix the dry and the wet ingredient
4- add the water by small batches so you will not over liquefy the mixture.
5- put the mixture into the muruku press, heat the oil in a frying pan
6- press the mixture in a round manner. Fry until crispy.
