My mom always made amazing vadas. Her vadas were always a hit specially her urad dal vada which was perfectly round and crisp. I’ve tried to make them a couple of times but all my attempts at the urad dal vada were a failure. However I managed to get the recipe of her masala vada and made this for our evening snack. They were great with a hot cup of tea.
Ingredients
1 cup chana dal
½ pod garlic
1 inch piece ginger
2 green chilles
1 chopped onion
1 sprig chopped curry leaves
2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
Salt to taste
Oil
Method
Soak the chana dal for 3-4 hrs. I soaked it overnight. Grind to a coarse paste along with the garlic, ginger and green chilles. Add the chopped onion, chopped curry leaves and coriander with salt to taste. Make flat small vadas of the mixture and deep fry in oil. You can even add finely chopped methi/palak to the vada mixture.
Tip: Add 2 tsp of hot oil to the dal mixture. This helps to make the vadas crisp.
