Rajma Murukku/Rajma Chakli

Wat to do with over cooked mushy rajma beans, either some of us makes tikkis with it or else make a stuffing with some spices for prepared stuffed parathas. I tried those both way of cooking to finish some overcooked rajmas eventhough some were sitting sadly in a my fridge. Seriously i want to finish them as soon as possible and tried them adding while make murukku aka chakli yesterday. Trust me the outcome was just fantabulous, initially i had a doubt whether the addition of rajma may absorbs much oil while frying the murukkus, but i was wrong they are just amazing.

Apart from the addition of thick rajma paste, these murukkus goes for usual ingredients. The addition of this rajma paste makes this murukkus just crispy,mildly buttery and extremely addictive. Eventhough these beauties are deep fried, once in while we can make them at home,also Diwali is around the corner.We are celebrating Diwali this year on 2nd November, if you still dont have any idea about a savoury dish for diwali celebration, make this crunchy munchies and celebrate diwali differently.Am very proud that one more creation of mine came out extremely prefect. They are just addictive and you cant stop urself just with one.This beauties are going Diwali Delicacies Event, hosted by me and Sangee Vijay of spicy treats and to Gayathri's Diwali Special..
