Maash and Methi Bhajiye

#cookpadindia #iftaar #innovative #ramadanrecipe An excellent twist to the usual Daal Maash Bhajiye made prominently in Ramadan all over the City. I have used Daal Maash or Urad Daal as it's commonly known as in a simple yet perfect idea for Iftaar meals along with Fenugreek Greens or Methi. Delicious and healthy Fritters or Bhajiye as called in Hyderabad, these are made with Black Gram or Urad Daal. Much similar to Punugulu of Andhra in looks but these are not made with Idli or Dosa batter. These are made with Urad Daal batter only along with a few simple ingredients.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Wash and rinse the Lentils thoroughly with enough water for about 3-4 times and soak in clean drinking water overnight for best results.

* Step 2

Next day, grind to a smooth paste using the same water and use only a little of it. Do not use much. The batter should be thick and spongy. The remaining water can be used for cooking Rice or in Curries or Gravies or even for kneading a dough. Don't discard that water. It is highly nutritious. Or can be used in Soups as well.

* Step 3

Add rest of the ingredients to the batter and set aside until the Oil gets heated. Drop small balls of this white fluffy batter in hot Oil and deep fry on a medium high to high heat until golden and crisp. Yum! Deep fry by dropping small balls with your hands or a spoon whichever is convenient for you. Fry until done on all the sides.

* Step 4

Serve with Coconut Chutney any other Chutney or Dip of your choice. Enjoy! It goes well with Tomato and Ginger Chutney too. I had served it with Coleslaw Salad this time for Iftaar. Enjoy!
