Step by step method/picture for making Achappam/Achu murukku/ Kerala style Rose Cookies.
Ingredients
Rice flour-1 cup
(I used the store bought)
All purpose flour/Maida-1/2 cup
Sugar-1/2 cup
Salt a pinch
Sesame seeds-1 & 1/2 tsp
Egg-1
Cumin seeds/Jeera -1/8tsp
Coconut milk or Whole milk-1 cup
(Coconut milk gives nice flavour)
Oil-to deep fry
Method
Beat eggs with sugar,now add both the flours,sesame seeds,cumin & salt,mix it well.
Pour milk and make a semi thick batter.Consistency should look similar to a pancake or dosa batter.Rest the batter for 20 minutes (I was in a hurry so did not rest)
Heat oil in a pan,dip the mould in oil & keep till its hot.Remove from oil & dip 3/4th of the hot mould into the batter,you will hear a light sizzle.Do not dip it fully, lift it up & dip it immediately into the oil,after a 15 to 20 seconds slightly shake the mould to release the achappam (If you find it difficult to release the achappam,use a skewer to push it out from the mould ).
In medium flame fry both sides till its light brown & crisp.Remove it on a kitchen paper to remove excess oil.Repeat until the whole batter is used up.
Cool completely & store it in a air tight container.
Note:
a) When buying the mould choose the thick variety which is heavy,the light weight mould doesn't work properly.
b) Make sure the mould is well heated before dipping into the batter each time.
c) Keep the oil in medium heat throughout the process.Always keep the mould immersed in hot oil before dipping into the batter,this is most important.
