This will be the last post as part of week 1 of the BM #17. The past two posts and this one have taken me down the memory lane reminding me of some very sweet moments of my childhood. Though the weather played a spoil sport, I enjoyed blogging under the theme.
I remember that amma used to fry these minapa vadiyalu every weekend along with Saggubiyyam Vadiyalu and Pelala Vadiyalu to go with Besibelebath. It has been quite some time since I have eaten that combo.
Ingredients -
Urad Dal 1/2 cup
Salt as needed
Red Chilli Powder 1/4 tsp (or as needed)
Asafoetida a pinch
Method Of Preparation -
Wash and soak Urad dal for 4-5 hrs. Drain and grind to a smooth batter using as little batter as needed.
Add in salt, red chili powder and asafoetida and whip the batter. Add a few spoons of water if the batter is too thick.
Arrange a plastic sheet in a sunny area and drop the prepared batter by a small spoon making a near circular shape.
Let them dry for 2-3 days and make sure both the sides are thoroughly dry before they are stored in an air tight container.
For serving just deep fry in oil until they are golden brown and enjoy with food of your choice.
