Dal vada is a very popular snack from the state of Gujarat. All gujaratis love dal vada. Dal vada can be prepared in different ways. It can be prepared with mix dal, chana dal or moong dal.
Here I have prepared dal vada from moong dal with skin. Very few spices are added to this dal but it comes out really tasty. Dal vada is served with sliced onion and fried green chillies.
