Medu Vada

Directions

• Tak a cup of urad dal along with 2 tablespoon of raw rice and clean it using fresh water 2 to 3 times. Soak it in water for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile chop onion, green chillies and curry leaves. Keep it aside.
• After 30 minutes, grind the urad dal using mixer grinder or wet grinder to get vada batter. The consistency should be in a semi solid thickness. When a little batter is dropped in water, it should float.
• Add chopped onion, green chillies, curry leaves, 1 tablespoon rava and salt as required into the vada batter and mix it well.
• Keep a big size pan in stove, pour half litre cooking oil and wait till it heats (around 10 minutes in medium flame). Test the heat by adding a little drop of vada batter and make sure it rises quickly.
• Take a lemon size batter in hand, place a hole using finger and drop it in oil pan. Depending on pan size, 4 to 6 vada can be made at once.
• Wait till the vada get fried and take it out when the colour changes to golden brown and place them in plate spreaded with kitchen tissue at the bottom.
• Tatsy Medu Vada is ready !
