[tscii] Tried eggless achu murukku, and it was a huge success.
Here is the recipe. Kugan98

EGGLESS ACHU MURUKKU (ROSE COOKIES)

Ingredients:

1 cup rice flour
½ cup plain flour
1/8 th cup corn flour
Sieve the 3 flours well together

1 ¼ cup thick coconut milk
½ cup sugar
½ tsp salt
A pinch of white lime (chunnambu )
Oil for frying

Method:
Put the flours, sugar, white lime and coconut milk in a bowl.
Mix well till the sugar dissolves.
Beat the batter till it becomes smooth.

Heat oil in a wok over medium flame.
Take the achu murukku mould and dip it into the oil to make it hot.
When the mould is hot, dip it into the batter.
Take care not to let the batter cover more than ¾ of the height on the mould.

Plunge the mould into the hot oil and hold for a minute.
Then slip the murukku off the mould by shaking it gently.
Let the murukku cook for 1-2 minute till it turns lightly brown.
Remove and drain onto a kitchen paper towel.
