Hi Mam
I tried your magilampoo murukku which came out very well….thank you for the recipe and i really think your website is useful.
Thank you Geetha for trying Murukku and nice to hear that it came out well.
Hi Aunty, u recipes are good.. i just tried rawa urundai..I did according to ur steps …but i can’t get the rawa balls. It is breaking even i pour more spoons of ghee..pls where i go wrong..
Hi Priya,
You have to add hot ghee. If you powder both fried rawa, sugar and add hot ghee and make the balls, it will stay round.
Thank u Aunty..ill do the same..
