Milagu Vadai(மிளகு வடை) | Anjaneyar Vadai | Hanuman Jayanthi Recipes

• Clean the Urad dal and soak it for 30 minutes.After 30 minutes, drain the water and keep it in the strainer till the water is drained completely.
• Grind the urad dal in mixie to a coarse paste. Make sure that you don’t grind it into a very fine paste. It should be coarse.
• Transfer the coarse paste in a plate, add the pepper powder,rice flour and salt.Mix well.Once done finally add a tsp of oil and mix well.

• Take a plastic paper and grease it with oil. Take a goose berry sized ball of the urad dal batter and place it on top of the plastic paper.Cover the plastic paper with another greased plastic paper.
• Press on top with a small plate and gently press it.The vada should  be very thin to get a crispy vada.
• Drop a hole on the center of the vada.

• Heat the oil and slowly drop the vada into the hot oil,fry it in the medium flame.
• Turn the other side side and fry it,till it become golden brown.Drain the oil and take it out.

My Notes:

• Make sure to grind the batter  into a coarse paste without adding water. 
• We can add the black pepper while grinding instead of adding pepper powder.
• Fry it in medium flame so that the vada turns crispy.
