Who doesn’t love these South Indian Doughnuts? This is another version of Vada or Vadai – with mixed vegetables and lentils. Try this instead of the usual Medhu Vada and it is perfect as a snack or tiffin especially on a rainy day!!
Ingredients:
| Toor Dal | 1/2 cup |
| Urad Dal | 1/2 cup |
| Moong Dal | 2 tbsp |
| Green chillies | 1 tsp chopped finely |
| Finely chopped Onions | 1/4 cup |
| Finely chopped ginger | 1 tsp |
| Finely chopped French beans | 1/4 cup |
| Finely chopped carrots | 1/4 cup |
| Curry leaves | finely chopped as needed |
| Coriander leaves | finely chopped as needed |
| Asafoetida | 1/2 tsp |
| Salt | as needed |
| Oil | For frying |
Method:
Soak the lentils for about an hour. Grind it coarsely in a mixer.
Mix it with rest of the ingredients and shape them into Vadas. Fry them in oil until golden brown.
Please fry them on a medium flame so that the Vadas get cooked inside.
While shaping the Vadai, wet your hand a bit. This really helps in making perfect Vadais.
Hope you all would enjoy making this Vegetable Vadai. Do let me know how it turns out.
