Steps

1

Soak both the dall separately for 7-8 hour. I used daal with chilka. In morning septate the chilka from the daal by rubbing by hand. For Me it tastes batter than ready made daal. U can take that too.😊
2

Now grind moong daal in mixer. Moong dal should be grind in fine paste with the help of very little water and urad daal should not be so fine. Avoid using water while grinding the dal.
3

Now keep both the daal in a big bowl mix them and beat by hand (very important) in a single direction till it become fluffy. Mux cumin into it. How to check:-Take enough water in a bowl and drop some portion of mixture in this water. If it float on the surface of water, it's a indication that daal is done.
4

Heat Oil in wok. When oil is medium hot drop portion of daal in oil. Size of vada is totally depends upon ur wish. When vada is light brown take it out from oil. We will fry them one more time.
5

When all the vada are done. Now fry them one more time till it become brown.
6
