  2. Divide this mixture into four parts. Take one part at a time, sprinkle a little water and knead into a dough. Heat sufficient oil in a kadai. Grease a murukku mould. Fill the dough into the mould and press the murukkus directly into the hot oil in spirals.
  3. Reduce heat to medium and deep fry till golden. Drain on absorbent paper. Prepare more murukkus with the remaining sago mixture in the same way. When slightly cooled, break the murukkus and store in an airtight container.
