Janthikalu Recipe | How to make Janthikalu | (Sankranthi special Recipe)

Hi friends, thank you all for visiting my website and @EATeasyvegrecipes youtube channel. Today's recipe is Janthikalu or murukku. Sankranthi festival is around, the speciality of sankranthi is kite flying, rangoli and making of different varieties of savoury and sweets. Saggubiyyam janthikalu is sankranthi special food item in Andhra Pradesh. Making of janthikalu is very easy. But we need to have janthikalu maker. We get murukku maker in any online store also like Amazon, Flipkart or in any local shop who sells utensils. We used to have 3 to 4 varieties of murukku makers at home. I too have three varieties of janthikalu makers. I make different varieties of janthikalu at home but always prefer to make this recipe only. We can keep the flour ready and make use of it any time.
