Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Rinse 1 cup urad dal a couple of times in water. Then soak the urad dal in 2 cups water overnight or for at least 4-5 hours.

* Step 2

Add the urad dal in a grinder jar.

* Step 3

Briskly & vigorously stir the batter for a minute or two with a spoon or spatula. This makes the batter fluffy and light. As a result you get softer and porous vadas. However the vadas should not be very light or fluffy as then they break in curd.

* Step 4

* Step 5

Gently slid the doughnut shaped vadai into medium hot oil. If you are unable to make the doughnut shaped vadas, then use a spoon and drop the batter in medium hot oil.

* Step 6

When the base is light golden, turn over with a slotted spoon and continue to fry the vadas.
