I just cannot thank you enough for this lovely recipe, Shilpa! (and I mean it seriously at 1/2 hr to the stroke of mid-night). Well the story goes like this... last night i soaked a cup of whole urad dal with skin hoping to use it up for idli batter. But it was painfully difficult to rub off the skins so I was desperately looking for some way to use this soaked urad dal. Then to my great relief, i found your recipe.

I didn't get the shape well on the first few but i must admit making vadas on foil is the toughest job;) plastic sheet is better:) and ofcourse since the urad dal had soaked close to being sprouted, it was a bit sticky and difficult to handle even grinding without water. but believe me this is the tastiest, healthiest snack i have ever made. I ground the green chillies etc., along with the dal so my 2 yr old can eat without any difficulty.

i came across your comment that this is to be made with split urad dal,a bit too late, but this came well even with the whole ones. Thanks again!

Shilpa: Thanks Latha. Usually I write Urad for whole urad and urad daal for split urad. I didn't know it was confusing.

Sorry, my hand hit the wrong buttons – I was saying that I am 50 years old, and have never seen it. I could take a pic of it with my camera phone and e-mail it – just let me know where
