Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Wash and soak urad Dal and Moong dal overnight (or minimum 4hrs).
* Step 2
Drain water and grind Dal into a thick batter. If you find Dal to be too thick, add little water to make it grind easily. Mix it nicely.
* Step 3
Transfer the batter into a large bowl and add salt,black pepper,mint leaves and coriander leaves.
* Step 4
Now add besan and mix well. Stir the mixture nicely to make it airy.Then add fruit salt(eno) and mix it nicely and let it rest for 5 mins.
* Step 5
Now heat water in your regular Idli or dhokla steamer and meanwhile grease your idli plates and keep aside. The batter will start rising, scoop a spoon of batter and place on the greased idli plates. Try to shape them as round dumplings.
* Step 6
Put the idli plates in the steamer and cook for 20 minutes or till the tooth pick inserted comes out clean.
* Step 7
Open the steamer and let take out the idli stand carefully and allow to rest for another 5-6 mins. Now carefully scoop out the steamed vadas and soak them in water for 5 mins.
* Step 8
Meanwhile whisk yogurt and add salt per taste. Line the vadas on a plate and pour thick yogurt all over. Sprinkle roasted cumin powder, red chilli powder, chaat masala and fresh chopped coriander.
* Step 9
Add mint chutney and tamarind chutney for some extra zing .
* Step 10
Serve warm or chilled as per choice. But I prefer chilled dahi bhallas.
