Kai Murukku recipe


       Kai Murukku, also known as "handmade murukku," is a traditional South Indian savory snack made primarily from rice flour and urad dal (black gram) flour. It is named "kai" (meaning "hand" in Tamil) because it is skillfully shaped by hand into intricate spirals or coils before being deep-fried to a golden crisp. This snack is especially popular during festivals like Diwali and Krishna Jayanthi, and is cherished for its crunchy texture and mildly spiced flavor. Making kai murukku is considered an art, often passed down through generations, and requires both patience and practice to master the delicate shaping technique. It is not only a delicious treat but also a symbol of tradition and cultural heritage in many Tamil households.
