Instructions

  1. Mix the yogurt and water in a bowl, add the rava and soak for 10 minutes. The dough should bind well; if it is dry, sprinkle in some water.
  2. While the rava soaks, finely chop the onions, chilies, curry leaves and coriander, and grate the ginger.
  3. After 10 minutes, add the onions, chilies, leaves, cumin, salt and ginger to the soaked rava and form a dough. Beat it well by hand for 30 seconds to a minute, turning clockwise, to make the vada fluffy. Finally, add the soda and mix gently.
  4. The dough should be sticky and easy to spread; add water if it is dry. If it is too stiff, the vadas will turn hard.
  5. Heat oil in a deep pan. Grease a sheet of foil or cling film. Divide the dough into 12 portions and roll them into balls, placing them on the foil. Flatten each one and make a hole in the centre.
  6. Test the oil by adding a little dough: it should rise without browning, which means it is at the right temperature.
  7. Grease your fingers, transfer each vada from the foil onto your fingers, gently shake off, and slide it into the oil. Leave undisturbed until firm.
  8. Fry over medium-high heat, stirring often, until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Fry the rest in batches and serve with chutney.
