Parippu Vadas


Ingredients: Channa dal, Red chillis, 1 large Onion, 1 inch piece ginger, Green chillis, 1 tbsp rice flour, Salt, Oil to deep fry.

Method: Soak channa dal for 1 hour. Grind with 3-4 red chillis to a coarse paste. Add onion, ginger, and green chillis. Add rice flour to get desired consistency and also to make the vadas crisp. Make small balls. Flatten the balls and fry on a medium flame till you are sure the insides are cooked. Drain the excess oil out. The vadas continue to cook and turns darker outside the oil.

Usually served with coconut chutney. I like it better with tamarind chutney. Malayalis just love this vada and so do I.
