  Notes

  • Don’t overdo the butter — too much will make murukku soft or break easily.
  • Keep a damp cloth over the dough while working in batches so it doesn’t dry out.
  • If you like sesame seeds, you can add 1 tsp of sesame along with cumin.
  • For variation — skip pepper for kid-friendly version or add a pinch of chili powder for extra heat.
