Instructions
 

  • Clean and soak the Blackgram Dhal in normal water for about two hours. Then wash the Dhal again and grind it in a Mixie/Grinder well (try to avoid water and only if necessary, add 2-3 tspns. of water while grinding the Blackgram dhal). When the Dhall is grinded properly, take the batter out from the Mixie/Grinder and add chopped Green Chilli, Ginger, Curry leaves and required quantity of Salt and mix it with a spoon or hand. Vada Batter is ready.
  • Heat Oil in a Cheenachatty, make small balls with the batter, apply some water or oil in hands and flatten the balls in round shape (depending on the size of Vadas required) and put a hole in the middle of the flattened batter and put them into the hot oil and allow to cook the Vadas properly.
  • When one side of the Vadas are cooked, turn them into other side and allow to cook that side also and when colour of Vadas turns into golden/brown, (usually, about 10-12 minutes may take to cook Vadas) take them out from the Cheenachatty and keep the Vadas aside
  • Smash the Curd with a spoon slowly and change the Vadas into the Curd, add Salt to taste and allow the Vadas to soak in curd for about 10 – 15 minutes so that the Vadas will become very smooth and tasty. For making the Curd Vadas more tasty, some Sugar/Tomato Sauce also can mix with the Curd.
  • Heat 1-2 tspns. of Oil in a Frying pan/Cheenachatty, fry the Mustard seeds, Blackgram Dhal, Curry leaves and add it into the Curd Vadas (Thayir Vada).
  • Curd Vadas (Thayir Vada) are ready and it can be served with Butter-milk/Lassi etc. especially in summer season.
