Cabbage Vadai

   This Vadai has been tried by me a few times and it is really very tasty. It is an alternate to the onion Paruppu Vadai. Pattani Paruppu also known as Split Peas Dhal is always used by me for crunchy Paruppu Vadais and Adais. Onion, Garlic and Sombu are optional and not used on the days of Pooja.

Ingredients:

Pattani Paruppu / Kadalai Paruppu    1 cup

Finely chopped Cabbage 1/2 cup

Onion (optional )   1  

Sombu (optional )   1 tsp.

Garlic   6 pods

Green Chilly  2 

Red Chilly  2 

Ginger 1 small piece

Salt, Oil, Hing

Method;

Soak the Dhal for 1 hour and grind coarsely adding very little water, chilly, Ginger and salt.

Finely chop the onion, if used. Mix the ground Dhal, finely chopped Cabbage, Onion, Curry leaves, Coriander leaves, hing and 1 tbsp. of hot oil.

Make into small balls, flatten and drop the Vadais in the hot oil, flip and remove from the oil once the bubbles disappear. 30 hot, crunchy and tasty Vadais can be easily prepared in 3 batches very easily and quickly.

Preparation Time  30 minutes.
