Urad dhaal vadav-- Namude swantham Uzhunnu vada

 How about some Hot Urad dhaal Vadas for evening Snack ? Here it goes the recipe to make it. Please dont forget to remember the tips I have shared here as I learnt that out of my failure experiences in making Urad dhal vada.
----------------------------------


Ingredients :

Urad Dhal - 1 cup (for 6 small vadas)
raw rice - 2 tbspn ( or can add rice flour after grinding the dhal batter)
Salt , crushed pepper corns, Chopped curry leaves, Dhaniya leaves (optional), chopped onions - as required
Oil - as required for frying.

Soak the urad dhal + raw rice for 4 hrs. Grind this dry without any water.

Very important : To get that fluffy vadas u need to beat the batter in upside down strokes so as to give proper aeration. Leave it for 10 to 15 minutes.(if more quantity of batter is grinded leave for few more minutes).No need to ferment the batter but I have found that out of my own experience , it tastes better and will be crispy if allowed to stay for a few minutes.

Add salt and other ingredients as per your taste. Mix well.
Heat the oil in a kadai.


Now is the important part of shaping the vadas. Keep near you a bowl of cold water. Just smear some water on your left hand palm and pour a spoonful of batter on top of it. Dip your fingers in water and shape the vadas and make the hole. This dipping of fingers in water will help you avoid sticking of batter to the fingers and also it helps in giving the perfect shape. Smearing of water on palm helps in easily detaching the vadas into the oil.

Cook till golden brown. Serve with mint/coriander/coconut chutney. or even with Sauce or tomato ketchup

Note : Please give attention that the water smeared shouldn't be dripping off from palm as it can cause danger if the water drop falls on oil .Take care and Enjoy the taste of crispy hot vadas.

Dont forget to post me the feedback too :))
