    Instead of equal quantities of riceflour and besan… try with 1 cup of besan and 3 cups of rice flour… also add little qty of hot oil to the mixture before kneading into dough.will taste even crispier..

    also u can substitute the red chille powder with crushed green chillies.. will make the murkulu to appear less red in color.
