Chakli is a savoury snack from India. It is a spiral shaped snack with a spiked surface. Chakli is typically made from flours of rice, bengal gram (brown chickpea) and black gram (urad daal). It has several variations, depending on the types and proportion of flours used. Murukku, a similar snack typically made without the Bengal gram flour, is also sometimes called "chakli". Chakri is also a common nickname for "Chakradhar," a name of Indian origin. It's especially made for Diwali.It's very popular in South Africa, introduced by the Indian diaspora. Maize flour is used instead of rice flour with the addition of salt and cumin as the basic dry ingredients. Sold by street vendors and at neighborhood shops. Generally, referred to as "murkoo" but also called "jaw-breakers" by others.
