POONDU MURUKKU I GARLIC SPICY MURUKKU I DIWALI RECIPES

Hi friends, today's post for Vegan Thursday, as you all know that the event initiated by the great blogger aka akka +Priya Suresh... Every 1st and 4th Thursday you can post your vegan recipes with the VT logo. 

In the list of diwali recipes, this is my first savory for diwali... Yes!!! Mostly, the main recipes of diwali are Murukku and Adhirasam only, other recipes all are included by us... I love mullu murukku much than the normal variety, I wanted to try the mullu murukku, but that murukku achu was very tight, so couldn't use it.

I tried poondu (garlic) murukku. I love garlic flavor much, and after seen +Sangee akka’s garlic murukku, I was so tempted to try out... So I told to mom to make poondu murukku and we prepared the murukku from store-bought rice flour.
