How to Make Perfect Mix Dal Vada Batter

Soaking Dals for Mix dal Vade

1. Wash and rinse the dals together. Soak them in water for about 3-4 hours. Drain the water completely if water is left after soaking.

   

   

2. In a blender or mixer, coarsely grind the soaked dals without adding water . The batter should be thick and have a coarse texture for crispy vadas.

   

   

3. Wet your hands, take a small portion of the batter, and shape it into small patties or round balls. Flatten them slightly. If this happens that means the batter is perfectly ready to fry.

   

   

4. When not in use , you can store the batter without adding salt in an air tight container. It will remain fresh for 4-5 days. This batter can be also used for making doddege( thick dosa) , appe ( mix dal bonda ) or even you can keep the batter for fermenting to make grainy idlis.

   

   

5. Add masalas, salt and veggies of your choice. Deep fry and serve hot with your favourite sauces or chutney.
