Note:

  • To know the oil is heated add a small piece of the dough into the heated oil. If the dough rises immediately to the surface of the oil, the oil is heated and we can start pressing the murukulu maker for making murukulu into the heated oil.
  • Reduce the flame to low while pressing the murukulu maker into the heated oil. So that the heated oil does not spill on your hands.
  • Deep fry the murukulu s on medium flame. So that the murukulu get cooked evenly.
