Steps

30 mins

1

Soak the daal in sufficient water for 2 hours. Don’t over-soak it as that will reduce the crunchiness of Vada.
2

Make a corse paste of the daal, without adding any water. If few grains are whole, not getting to a paste form, that’s perfectly fine.
3

Mix ginger, onion, chopped green leaves, and salt into the daal mixture. Once mixed well, make small balls out of it and flatten them a bit, like cookies.
4

Heat oil, once hot, reduce the flame and fry the vadas, turning and making sure both sides are cooked well, making them look golden crunchy and yummy looking.
5

Serve with, as I have already mentioned, a steaming hot cup of ginger tea. Or with coriander chutney or tomato ketchup. Goes awesomely well.
