Masala vada


Ingredients :

Urad dal : 1 cup
onions : 1 cup chopped finely
corriander leaves : 1/2 cup chopped finely
cumin seeds : 1 tsp
turmeric : 1/4 tsp
ginger garlic paste : 1 tsp
green chilli : 2 or more depending on ur taste
salt : to taste
oil : for deep frying


Wash and soak the uadr dal for about 5 or 6 hours. Grind it into a thick paste along with green chillies. If it is loose it will absorb more oil. Take out into a bowl and mix in the ginger garlic paste, onions and corriander leaves. Add in the cumin seeds turmeric and salt. Mix well. Now heat enough oil in a pan for frying. Once hot, gently make a small round patty with the batteron the palm and also make a small hole in the center and drop into the hot oil. Fry on both sides till u get a nice golden brown color. Remove and drain the excess oil on a paper napkin. Serve hot either with coconut chutney or tomato ketchup.
