    1. Apply some water in the chakli/murukku maker and place a portion of the dough inside it.

    2. Tighten the lid and press the chakli maker to prepare the chakli. Move in rounds to get a spiral shape. Make the chakli on butter paper or aluminium foil, so thats it is easy to remove them.

    3. TIP 1 - If the chakli breaks while forming them, this means that the dough does not have enough moisture. Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of water and knead the dough again.

      TIP 2- If you are not getting proper shape, this mean that the dough is too moist. Add some flour and knead again.
