  • Salt – ½ Teaspoon
  • Sugar – ½ Teaspoon

For Tempering:

  • Mustard Seeds – 1 Teaspoon

Instructions:

Initial Preparation:

  1. Follow the Medu Vadai, Uzhunnu Vada(click here) recipe and make the vadas as described.
  2. Soak the prepared vadas in hot water for 15 minutes. Then take out them from hot water and slightly & gently squeeze to remove the excess water. Set aside.

Thair Vada Preparation:

  1. Take yogurt, water, sugar, salt into a large dish, and beat well until the yogurt is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a pan, and splutter mustard seeds.
  3. Then add in the dry chillies and fry for 1 minute on low-medium heat.
  4. Now add in the sliced onion, green chillies, curry leaves and saute until the onions become soft.
  5. Then add in the hing powder and fry for few seconds on low heat.
  6. Remove from heat and pour this tempering over the yogurt and mix well.
  7. Now add in the soaked vadas into this, and make sure that the vadas are well immersed in yogurt mixture.
  8. Let them soak in yogurt mixture for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
  9. Just before serving, sprinkle little red chilli powder and cumin powder on top, and add the finely chopped coriander leaves and enjoy.

Notes:

  • Dipping in hot water helps the vada to become soft and absorb the yogurt mixture.
  • If the curd is too thick, vada won't absorb it. So beating yogurt with water helps the vada to absorb the yogurt mixture.
