Alasanda Vadalu Ela Cheyali

 1. Soak the Alasandaluu

– Take 3 tea glasses of Alasandalu (black-eyed peas) in a large bowl.

– Add enough water to cover the dal generously and let it soak.

– For morning breakfast, soak the dal the previous evening. For evening snacks, soak it in the morning.

– Ensure the dal soaks for a minimum of 6 hours to achieve the best taste.

2. Prepare the Batter

– After soaking, wash the dal thoroughly.

– Drain excess water as too much moisture can make the vadas soft and prone to breaking.

– Grind the dal in a mixer grinder to form a coarse paste without adding water. The batter should be thick and smooth.

3. Add Spices and Vegetables

– In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground dal with the following ingredients:

  – 1 tsp coriander seeds

  – 9-10 garlic cloves (crushed)

  – 4 green chilies (finely chopped)

  – Chopped ginger

  – 2 chopped onions

  – Few curry leaves (chopped)

  – 1 tsp turmeric powder

  – Salt to taste

  – Chopped coriander leaves

– Mix everything well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Pro Tip: Mix the batter with your hands to ensure the spices are well incorporated and the batter becomes airy for crispier vadas.

4. Shape and Fry the Vadalu

– Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

– Take small portions of the batter and flatten them into vada shapes using your palm.

– Carefully drop the vadas into the hot oil.

– Fry them until golden brown and crispy on both sides.

– Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving Suggestions

– Serve Alasanda Vadalu hot with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, or spicy peanut chutney.

– They pair well with a cup of hot tea or coffee, making them a perfect snack for rainy evenings.

4. Fry at the Right Temperature: Fry on medium heat to ensure the vadas cook evenly and stay crispy.
