Doddu Murukulu (also known as Chakli or Janthikalu) is a traditional South Indian savory snack made from rice flour, urad dal flour, and a blend of spices. Deep-fried to a golden crisp, these spiral-shaped delights are crunchy, mildly spicy, and flavorful. Murukulu is a popular tea-time snack and a must-have during festivals like Diwali and Sankranti. The dough is pressed through a mold to create its signature shape before frying. It’s loved for its long shelf life and satisfying crunch, making it perfect for snacking or gifting during festive occasions. Enjoy it with hot tea or as an anytime treat!
