- Add all the spices and ingredients in the batter list except oil. Mix well.
- Keep it aside for 10 mins.
- Take curd in a large wide bowl, add water to your desired consistency. The curd shouldn't be too thick or too thin. Keep ot aside.
- Take a deep large bowl, add chilled water and little salt. Keep it aside.
- Now, heat oil in a wok and deep fry vadas till nice golden on both the sides.
- Take them out on a paper to remove excess oil, then put them in the chilled salted water, so it becomes spongy and fluffy.
(salted water)
- Do the same with all the vadas.
- They will absorb water within few mins, and increase in size.
- Now take out all the vadas, squeezing extra water from then and put them in the curd bowl.
- So, now when you have put all the vadas in the curd, heat a pan.
- Add oil, when its hot, add mustard seeds, as it crackles, add curry leaves, green chillies. Be careful at this step as oil splatters due to green chillies. Fry them a little.
