Chegodi

Chegodilu, also known as Chekodi or Ring Murukku, is a traditional South Indian savory snack popular in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Karnataka.

Chegodilu is made from a mixture of rice flour, besan (gram flour), cumin seeds, sesame seeds, salt, and sometimes spices such as chili powder and asafoetida. The ingredients are combined into a dough with water and kneaded until smooth.

To shape Chegodilu, the dough is rolled out into thin ropes, which are then twisted and formed into small rings or knots. These shaped dough pieces are then deep-fried in oil until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Once fried, Chegodilu are removed from the oil and allowed to cool on paper towels to drain off excess oil. They are known for their crispy texture and savory flavor, with a hint of spices and seeds.
