Follow along step-by-step.
Soak urad dal for 4 hours and grind thick and fluffy with minimal water.
Fry small vadas until pale golden, then soak them in warm water for 15 minutes.
Gently squeeze out water and arrange the softened vadas in a dish.
Cover with lightly sweetened salted yogurt, then add tamarind chutney, cumin, chilli and black salt.
Notes & Tips
Do not fry the vadas too dark; softer vadas absorb yogurt better. Nutrition values are approximate per serving.
