Heat oil for deep frying in a kadai. Add a portion of dough in the murukku press (use the ribbon pakoda achu) and make a round layer in hot oil.
When it is done on one side flip this carefully using the ladle. When the sizzling sound subsides take it out from the hot oil and drain the excess oil in a kitchen towel. Repeat this for the remaining dough. Store this in airtight container.
Note: 1. Always fry the pakoda in hot oil. If you make the make the flame low the pakodas will drink lot of oil. 2. Always use fine quality and smooth flour. 3. If the flour is not of fine texture the pakoda will break when we make and also it will drink oil. 4. If making in bulk, just mix all the ingredients except water. 5. Make dough in batches to avoid the pakodas getting reddish in colur. 6. Fresh ground pepper powder can be used instead of red chilli powder.
