Notes
1. Actually, in the original recipe, aunty told me to add green chili paste. If felt that it will be too hot and so added red chilli.
2. Do not worry about the sago will get struck into the holes in the achu. It will come smoothly.
3. Just mash it nicely with your hands before adding the flour.
4. As yogurt is added you can add a little more chilli powder also.
5. If the sago is not soaked properly it will burst in oil. Ensure it is soft and soaked well.
6. Sago murukku stays good for 10 days in an air tight container.
- In a wide bowl add the sago mixture, rice flour, chili powder, cumin seeds, butter, hot oil, salt, and asafoetida.

beautiful recipe dear
I think we can add this to your Madras mixture.So that we will get different tastes in one.
Hi, I tried this interesting recipe. The taste was awesome.
I had issue with sago bursting in the oil. Any idea how to reduce the bursting? I was concerned as I had a kid at home while doing this, so i kinda of stopped with one course.
Hi priya,
Thanks for the feedback. Regarding the bursting, i feel the sago u didn't mash nicely with hands before adding rice flour. Also it should be soaked well else it will burst
Thank you. Will try it next time. All your recipes are explained in a great way. As a beginner, i am excited to try and at the same time finding it easy to follow the instructions.
I usually grind the sago and mix in the rice flour. That way the shape come out perfect as well in any mould
