Ever bitten into something so crispy, so light, yet so full of flavour that you forgot it was actually good for you? That’s Red rice murukku
Made with Mapalli Samba Red Rice, this isn’t your regular crunchy snack. It’s deep-fried in cold-pressed groundnut oil, free from refined salt, and crafted with just a handful of real, local ingredients. No preservatives. No shortcuts. Just honest, handmade goodness.
It’s so light that you won’t believe it’s deep-fried in cold-pressed oil. Unlike commercial snacks loaded with refined oils and salts, this murukku keeps things pure and clean. Refined oils and refined salt not only strip away nutrients but also introduce harmful compounds when heated.
No Palm Oil Here. Most snacks in the market are made with palm oil or rice bran oil, cheap, processed, and far from healthy. Vrudhi Red rice murukku is different. We use only cold-pressed groundnut oil for a healthier crunch.
And the price? There’s a reason for it. Millet flours cost more than refined alternatives, Himalayan Pink Salt isn’t your everyday processed salt, and cold-pressed groundnut oil? It’s three times the price of regular refined oil. But that’s the thing, you’re paying for real ingredients, not artificial fillers. You get freshness, quality, and a snack that doesn’t feel heavy or greasy. A crunch you can trust, made with zero shortcuts.
Every step of making this murukku is done with care—no aluminum utensils, no reused oil, and prepared in small batches. Because we use only cold-pressed oils, the shelf life is limited, but that’s what makes it fresh and real. It’s a snack you can trust, made the way it should be.

The tamarind thokku is just out of this world. Tried it only today and it’s almost half empty already. Sincerely hoping it would be forever available on ur website Venutha! Tried it with hot rice for lunch and dosa in the morning.
Nowadays the trend is to serve the tamarind thokku and vrudhi chutney pudis on the plate first and then serve the cooked food😅
A big hit in the family!!
