In a large mixing bowl, combine 200 grams of rice flour and 50 grams of urad dal flour.
Add 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, 0.5 teaspoon of asafoetida, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour mixture.
Melt 30 grams of butter and pour it into the flour mix. Mix well until it resembles bread crumbs.
Gradually add 150 ml of water to the mixture, kneading it into a smooth and pliable dough.
Divide the dough into small lemon-sized balls.
Roll each ball into a long strip and shape them into rings, pressing the ends to seal.
Prepare frying oil by heating 500 ml of vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, gently drop 3-4 prepared rings into the oil, taking care not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry them on medium heat until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally using a slotted spoon.
Remove the murukku and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Repeat the process until all dough portions are fried.
Let them cool completely and store the ring murukku in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
