Thengai Paal Murukku Recipe | Coconut Milk Murukku with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Murukku or chakli recipes are perhaps one of the popular South Indian snack recipes made with different types of flour. The recipe is not just known for its taste, but also for its beautiful and attractive shape. One such hugely popular South Indian Cuisine murukku recipe is Thengai paal murukku known for its additional coconut-flavored taste.
I have posted quite a few murukku recipes till now, but this recipe of Thengai paal murukku has to be the most flavored crisp snack. The main reason is the use of full-cream coconut milk. Traditionally, these Murukku’s are made with fresh coconut grate milk which induces a lot of flavors to the murukku or chakli. However, I did not have access to the fresh coconut and hence I used canned full-cream coconut milk. Well, honestly, it does the job, but nothing compared to the freshly extracted coconut milk. Do try this coconut murukku; I am certain all your family would love it.
Furthermore, some more related and additional tips, suggestions, and variations to the Thengai paal murukku. Firstly, the murukku is traditionally made without spikes like other chakli recipes. However, it is not limited to, and hence you can use a spike-shaped murukku maker to make this snack. Secondly, while deep frying, avoid overcrowding deep frying vessels. Also, you need to deep fry them in slow to medium heat for the best crunchy result. Lastly, once the snack is made, store it in an airtight container for a longer shelf life. Also, once deep-fried you can crush them into small pieces to store them effectively.
