Ingredients
1 cup Moong dal
1/4 cup finely Onion
1 tsp finely chopped ginger
4-5 green chili
Few coriander leaves
Salt
Oil
Ingredients
Soak Moong dal for 2hours (minimum). Drain this completely and grind to a coarse paste. Transfer this to a bowl and add all other ingredients and mix well. Wet the palms of your hand and divide the mixture into small balls and flatten them gently with your palms. Now divide the mixture into small balls and flatten them gently with your palms. Heat oil for deep frying. When oil is hot, reduce heat to low-medium and gently slide the vada. Fry until crispy and golden brown.Enjoy with tea!!!
Note:
Draining the dal is very important in making vada. Keep it in drainer for 10-15mins, otherwise extra moisture makes to difficult to shape the Vada and also it breaks easily in oil. Don't grind onion along with a dal which gives you a watery batter.
