Thair/Dahi Vada

This post is taken up from my blog Its Mine. I wanted to make Thair vada (Dahi vada) for a long time... So called mom and got the recipe


Ingredients:
2 cups of Urad dal
1-2 tablespoon of rice (I put a fist of rice)
Salt
Black pepper (whole or powder)
Oil for frying
Curd/ Yogurt
Grated carrot (for garnish)
Coriander (for garnish)

Procedure:
Soak the urad dal and rice together for 1-2 hrs
Then grind it to a thick paste (more the water content, more oil its soaks while frying)

Heat the oil in a pan/kadhai (anything which can be used for deep frying)
once the oil is sufficiently hot, put small portions of the batter in the oil

Photobucket

Once the vadas are golden brown take them out of the oil into a paper towel to soak out excess oil.

Photobucket

Keep a vessel of hot water ready, put these fried vadas into hot water. Let it soak for a 15 mins.

Photobucket

Now take these out of water, squeeze out the water, and soak these vadas into thick curd. Leave it for sometime, now the vadas are ready to be served

Photobucket

Now garnish this using grated carrots, coriander leaves for garnishing. You can also add green chutney and meetha chutney on top for garnish.
