Today I am sharing with you all the recipe to make Goan chakri or chakli or murukku. In Goa, for any festival we make variety of chakris and today’s recipe is rice flour chakri or rice flour murukku.

Wiki says that Murukku originated in Tamilnadu. In Goa too we have been making them since ages. The name chakri is derived from chakra meaning round. If you cannot make a round shape, you can even make small pieces, deep fry and eat them.

Chakris are made in a special device or machine known as “chakar dato”. There are several varieties of such devices available in the market. Just that you should make the dough properly to get the right shape.

* To know if the dough is proper try to make 1 small chakri.

* If while making the chakri/murukku the dough breaks, then you can add little water and mould the dough again.

* If the dough comes out without proper shape from the single star shaped hole, it means that the dough is has more water in it. Add little more rice flour and mix.
