A famous South Indian snack or Fritters generally made with Bengal Gram or Chana Daal. They are soaked for a few hours and then mixed with a few other ingredients or spices and then finally deep fried. In this innovative twist by me, I have made use of Moth Beans/Matki Daal along with Bengal Gram.

And thus the end result was innovative, awesome and lip-smacking hot Vadas.
The rest of the ingredients are the same and no changes has been made to the authentic recipe. Not only did these turn out yum, they looked equally gorgeous.
Crisp and crunchy, absolutely beautiful in colour, these Vadas have turned out perfect in every way.

Indulge in these beautiful looking Vadas on any day at evening Tea-time or Shaam ki Chai or even on festive occasions and special days making your evenings a lovable affair.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

30-35 minutes

1

Grind dal with all the powdered spices except the coriander leaves, curry leaves, green chillies and onions. (Keep some soaked Chana daal about 2 tablespoons aside to mix in the batter after grinding.)
2

After mixing well, keep the daal batter aside to let the flavours infuse well. Cover and set aside for 15 minutes as the oil gets heated up on a low for deep frying.
3

Shape them into small thinner vadas and flatten them a little with your hands. Deep fry them in hot oil on a low to medium flame. (Care should be taken for the first 2 minutes and the vadas should be left undisturbed.)
4

After a minute or two, slowly turn them to the other side. Serve them hot with green chutney or any dipping sauce of your choice. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
