Tips for making Murmura Chivda
Sift the Murmura and discard the small particles and any dirt before roasting Coarsely grinding ginger and chilies, and chopping some of the curry leaves makes the Chivda more flavorful than just adding pieces Fry the ground chilies, ginger, and curry leaves on low heat for a crispy texture You can also bake or air fry peanuts and chana daal. Air fry at 300 F for 3 to 4 minutes or bake at 325 F for 5 to 7 minutes or until lightly golden brown
Step-by-Step Recipe
In a wide pan roast Murmura in two batches on medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until it is hot to the touch. You can also try to break a few with your nails and you will hear the crunch.
Fry peanuts on medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes or as they lightly brown. Using a slotted spoon take out fried peanuts leaving any excess oil in the pan and add the peanuts to the roasted Murmura. Fry roasted chana dal for 3 to 4 minutes or until the chana dal is lightly golden. Take out the chana dal using a slotted spoon leaving all excess oil in the pan. Add it to the Murmura. Add the remaining oil to the pan and heat. Add asafetida, mustard seeds, turmeric, sesame seeds, curry leaves, ginger, and green chilies to the pan. Lower the heat and saute for one to two minutes on low heat making sure the chiles and ginger do not brown.
Add to the roasted Mamra with the peanuts and roasted chana dal. Add salt and sugar. Gently mix it all. Allow it to completely cool down before storing it in an air-tight container.
