Instructions
- If you want vadas for breakfast it is best if you soak the lentils overnight or a minimum of four fours.
- After fermentation, grind the lentils with a little water to make a smooth paste.
- Mix in the cumin seeds, curry leaves, onion, ginger, coconut and salt in the batter till well combined.
- Heat oil for deep frying in a large wok.
- Moist your palms with water and give the batter a round shape making a hole in the middle with the help of your thumb and keep making vada like this and putting in the oil.
- Once the vadas are golden brown in colour, remove them from the oil and drain the excess oil on a kitchen towel.
- Serve hot with chutney.
