This past weekend, we had been to visit my husband's distant relative, who is doing his school here for past 1 year. It was planned all of a sudden during friday. He, loves snacks esp traditional ones, so Mil and me started making some which we made for Diwali. As i mentioned in my Diwali Post, I was so caught up enjoying the festivites that I dint take any snaps. This time , I thought lemme take some and I sure did. We made Ribbon Murukku and Somasi - my Mil's style.
When we went and gave him a packet of the goodies, he was so overwhelmed! Nothing like our indian cultures and festivites and that oneness ! :-) Ribbon Murukku is my entry for Meeta's Monthly Mingle Event : Traditional Feasts
My Mil used her eye expertise for making Somasi, so I dont have the correct measurements. Will post with correct ones later
Method
1. Add all the ingredients in a bowl.
2. Mix some water. Add 1 tbsp at a time.
3.The consistency should be such that, it is not too hard nor too soft.It should be like as shown below
4. Take a Ribbon Murukku maker and keep ready.
5.Spoon the prepared dough into the maker and press it over some oil heated in a pan for deep fry.
6. Let it fry for a minute and
then slowly turn it the other side.
Remove it with a slotted spoon once its browned on both the sides. All done :-)
I have the snap of the Somasi which we made on the same day. Will post with the measurements later :)
