No festival menu is complete in Tamil Nadu without Vadai and Payasam. This Vadai called also Medhu Vadai is a very popular and tasty Vadai.No reason can be given for posting a common but perfect item so late.
This Vadai is the best combination for Pongal and Sambar.It goes well with Coconut Chutney. Yummy Thayir Vadais can be made out of these Vadais.
Ingredients :
Whole white Urad Dhal 1 cup
Raw rice 2 tsp.
Green Chilly 3 - 5
Ginger 1 small piece.
Onion ( optional)
Oil, Salt, Coriander leaves, Curry leaves.
Method:
1.Soak Urad Dhal and rice for 1 hour.Rice is added for the Vadais to be crispy.Rice flour can also be added in the end instead of rice. Drain the water completely and grind in a wet grinder with the green chilly and ginger.Sprinkle 2 tbsp. of water each time for 2-3 times for the Vadais to be soft.Otherwise the Vadais will be hard.Grinding may take 12 - 15 minutes.The dough must be fluffy and little flexible but rigid enough to be made into Vadais.Add salt in the end.
2. Add finely chopped Onion, Curry leaves and Coriander leaves.Mix well.
3. Make the dough into Vadais, drop in the hot oil.When one side is cooked, flip to the other side and remove from oil, after the bubbles disappear. The hot and tasty Vadais are ready.
Notes :
Many people add chopped green chilly but that is bitten at times and becomes hot and spicy for kids and adults also.So when ground in the grinder, it is safe. Adding Ginger gives a good flavour.
It is better to blend the Chilly and Ginger in the small mixer and add to the Urad Dhal while grinding in the wet grinder.Anyhow, the mixer has to be taken for grinding the Chutney for Vadais.
