After soaking, drain the dal and blend it into a fine paste without adding any water.

3

Whip the batter for 5-10 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy.

Check the batter by dropping a small amount into a bowl of water; if it floats, it’s ready.

Add salt to taste and 2 tablespoons rice flour to the batter for extra crispiness.

6

Mix in 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, 2 tablespoons chopped ginger, 2 green chilies (chopped), and 2 tablespoons chopped curry leaves.

Wet your hands to prevent sticking and shape the batter into lemon-sized balls, flattening them slightly and making a hole in the center.

Heat oil in a frying pan on low heat and gently slide the shaped vadas into the oil.

9

Fry for 7-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy, ensuring they cook through.

10

Serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
