yogurt

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: buttermilk

Greek yogurt adds protein and creaminess, while buttermilk is more affordable.

tamarind chutney

🥗Healthier: date chutney

💰Cheaper: ketchup

Date chutney is healthier with natural sweetness, while ketchup is a budget-friendly alternative.

Soak urad dal in water for 4-6 hours or overnight.

Drain the soaked dal and blend it into a smooth batter with minimal water.

Add salt and cumin seeds to the batter and mix well.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat.

Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove vadas and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Whisk yogurt in a bowl until smooth and creamy.

Soak the fried vadas in warm water for 10-15 minutes to soften.

Gently squeeze out excess water from the vadas and place them on a serving plate.

Pour whisked yogurt over the vadas, covering them completely.

Sprinkle cumin powder, chili powder, and sugar on top.

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve with tamarind chutney.
