Curd murukku or Thayir murukku is a spicy, crispy and flavorful snack made with curd. You can prepare for this Diwali snack. The green chilli paste and curd goes well together and makes this savory snack really flavorful.
We always make something to much on for Diwali, thayir murukku is a perfect one if you have not tried before.
I have also posted other interesting murukku recipes in my website, do check it out. Check out my Diwali recipe index to browse more choices.
[feast_advanced_jump_to]This is the first time I am using green chilli in murukku and totally loved the flavor it lends to the murukku. Check out the ingredients
See recipe card for full list and quantities.
1. Take 10-12 green chilli firstly in a mixie (blender) with salt (I used 1 teaspoon heaped).
2. Add 2-3 tablespoon of water and grind to a paste. Set aside.
3. After that take a mixing bowl. Add rice flour, urad dal flour, sesame seeds, 2 tablespoon of ground chilli paste, curd and ghee.
4. Mix well first.
Then add water little by little to make a smooth, soft dough.
Too tight dough will be difficult to press through. So make a fairly soft dough.
5. Take murukku press and fit it with thenkuzhal plate. Fill the dough in it.
6. Press in hot oil directly.
7. Fry in low flame. Once bubbles reduce and you could see murukku on surface, flip it.
8. Continue cooking in medium flame until golden.
9. Drain over paper towel. Repeat to finish.
10. Regulate the heat as needed but cook in low to medium flame for perfect looking color.
Here are some suggested substitutions you may be looking for:
Curd murukku will be good for a week in Shelf. If you are in cold region, I am sure it can easily stay good for 15 days in room temperature.
Cool down completely before storing in an airtight box.
I used my small murukku press that I got as gift form my MIL. This has smaller holes in the plate, which means crispier and whiter murukku comparatively.
You can definitely use your own choice of murukku press (screw type/ gun type or manual pressing type) as well as any shape (star plate or the clover type)
If you are a beginner, I would suggest to start with screw model as it is one of the easiest to squeeze. Check this out Murukku press (Amazon affiliate link)
I tried this recipe from here. It had simplest instructions and loved the varieties. I have been eyeing on Instant ulundu murukku next 🙂
Usually I use Baba’s Idiyappam flour available in Singapore which gives best crispy as well as whiter murukku.
It’s because of the fact that it is a processed flour and finest in texture, not at all coarse.
But this time, I used Brahmins idiyappam flour and my homemade urad dal flour. It was both coarse and my murukku broke while squeezing.
To troubleshoot, I added little Erawan rice flour which I had in stock. It is also very fine flour so it helped my binding together. I fixed and got murukku in shape finally.
Murukku breaks in oil:
Mainly because flour is too coarse. Make sure to buy finest flour for good binding.
Now a days even urad dal flour is available readymade. You can buy it and roast slightly and use as it helps binding the flours better.
If using homemade make sure to powder finely like a talc.
Turns dark:
Cook in low flame or medium flame for long time. Do not try to cook fast in high flame.
Do not let the dough stand for long time. Even if you want to make large quantity, do it in small batches.
One more reason, roasting urad dal flour too much.
Lesser possibility is due to rice flour’s quality.
Hard:
Murukku turns hard mainly because you take out from oil too soon. If it is not fried inside (soft) as it cools down, it will harden eventually.
So wait patiently until the bubble and sound ceases.
Lesser possibility is due to rice flour’s quality.
Dissolves in oil:
Too coarse flour, not enough water in dough or not enough binding (urad dal flour)
If you add too much ghee/ oil or any fat in dough it may dissolve.

Diwali sweets recipes collection of varieties of Ladoo, Jamun, Burfi, Halwa, Peda and traditional sweets is featured in this post. Sweets for Diwali 2021 – Starting from quick recipes like Gulab Jamun to time consuming traditional recipes like Adhirasam. I have presented a wide range of recipes for you to choose and make sweets for Diwali 2021. I have categorized the Diwali sweets into categories for ease of easy browsing and reference.
Diwali is the most fanfare festival we celebrate every year across India. In North India the festival also celebrates the royal homecoming of Rama &Sita to the city of Ayodhya after defeating Ravana whereas in South India the festival marks Krishna’s killing of the demon Narakasura. Diwali also known as Deepavali is the festival of lights, joy, dress, sweets and crackers. It’s a five day festival – Day 1, known as Dhanteras, is dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, and purchasing small items of gold. Day2 is Hanuman Pooja when Hanuman is worshipped before Lord Rama on Diwali. Day3 is Naraka Chaturdashi and main day of Diwali festival. Day 4 known as Govardhan Puja, commemorates new financial year for merchants and Day 5, called Bhai Dooj celebrates the bond between brothers and sisters.
Diwali Sweets : One of the sweet confusion is choosing which sweet this Diwali! While some choose by the availability of time, some choose by safe, easy and instant varieties, some choose to challenge the tough traditional ones and some choose the family favourites. I have posted 30+ Laddu varieties, 25+ Halwa varieties, 15+ Burfi varieties, 10+ Jamun&Peda varieties and 25+ traditional & other sweets collection here (give link to main page header tab Diwali). Sweets are sweatier for us at the least and sweeter for the entire family!
Happiness and joy the sweets bring to the family will make us forget the efforts and go for one more mile! I generally do one sweet preferred for kids Milk sweet or Jamun, one sweet for gifting & exchange – Laddu or Burfi before Diwali and make Adhirasam & Seeyam on the day of Diwali. Kids preferred sweet most likely get over before Diwali and hence I do one more round with Halwa or Instant varieties. The sweets I make for gifting & exchange is usually a collective cooking with either friends or neighbours. Shopping, get-together, gifting & exchange of sweets make Diwali a Diwali!
Due to this pandemic we can have a virtual Diwali celebration party with homemade diwali special sweets and enjoy.
My fond memories of this day: Thala Diwali or 1st Diwali after marriage when it was a great family get together with lots of sweets, food, dress and crackers. My Diwali while I was a kid was more of watching new film releases & TV, crackers, Non Veg and visiting relatives place. Nowadays, it is more of cooking, enjoying feast and running behind kids!

What is a celebration with limitations or measures? – Serve / eat till you get tired of eating! Suggest to make Diwali chooranamto digest the overloads!
Refrigeration is needed after 2 days when the sweets (if they are still available) are to be consumed for a week & more.
Always store in air tight containers and beware of moving it out of reach for children (as sweets will get over before Diwali) and sugarly(!) elders.
Diwali is festival of lights and is one of the popular festivals celebrated throughout India. Deepavali means ‘row of lights’ in Sanskrit so it is called Deepavali in South India and Diwali and North India.
Ladoo, Badusha and Milk Peda are easy, common sweets for Diwali. Beginners and office goers can start with Instant Gulab Jamun, Milk powder burfi, Carrot Ladoo and then slowly build expertise when you find time to make Halwa, Adhirasam and other sweets.
Diwali Leghyam aids in the digestion after the huge variety of sweets, savouries and food intake. You can find the recipe here.
