Dahi Vada Recipe with less oil               Makes 16 to 17 vadas
Ingredients
Dhuli Urad Dal/Skinned Black Lentil – 1 cup
Asafoetida/Hing – ¼ tsp
Salt – to taste
Oil – ¼  cup
Beaten yogurt – 3 to 4 cups
SweetTamarind/Imli chutney – 1 ½ cup
Black salt – for seasoning
Red chili powder – as per taste
Roasted cumin /Jeera powder – as per taste
Paddu/Paniyaram pan – 1

Method:
1.    Wash and soak the lentils in 3 cups of water for at least an hour or till well soaked.
2.    Drain the water and grind to a thick fine paste. Use as little water as required to run the mixer.
3.    Season the paste with salt and hing. Use an electrical beater or a hand held whisk to beat the paste till it becomes pale and fluffy.
4.    Heat the Paddu/Paniyaram pan and add a few drops of oil in the cavities. Wet your fingers and make small balls with the lentil paste. Fill the cavities in the pan with the paste. Cook on low heat for 2 mins on one side before flipping them over.
5.    Drizzle with a tiny bit of oil on each vada. Cook till done. Check by inserting skewer. If it comes out clean, the vadas are done. Remove from heat and drop the balls/vadas into a large bowl filled with water and leave to soak.
6.    Once they puff up, gently squeeze out the excess water and place the lentil vadas onto a plate. Cover generously with the yogurt. Drizzle with the tamarind chutney. Sprinkle black salt, red chili powder and cumin powder. Decorate with a spring of coriander.
7.    Serve chilled.
