Ingredients:
- Black gram (Ulunthu) 1 cup
- Pepper 5
- Salt
- Onion 2
- Oil
- Green chilly 5
Method:
- Soak ulunthu for atleast 2 hrs (If the Black gram is skinned soak and remove the skin).
- Grind the ulunthu with pepper and salt.(Better to grind in grinder instead of mixie)
- Take the batter in a Broad vessel and beat it with the egg beater at high for 5 mins.
- Finely chop the onion,green chillies,coriander(optional), ginger(optional) and add to the batter.
- Heat the kadai and pour enough oil for deep fry.
- Wet your hand and make the batter into lemon sized ball and flatten it into vada shape with the hole in center.
- Toss the vada in the oil and fry it at medium flame.
- Remove the vada from oil once it turns into golden brown.
Note:
Beating the batter incorporates air and makes the Vadas fluffy. Instead of egg beater u can also use hand and beat it for 15 mins.
While grinding add less amount of water.This helps to make vada more fluffy.
