Ingredients
For Outer Layer
  • 50gms (1/4 cup)
For Filling
  • 1 cup
  • 1 cup
  • 1/4 cup (optional)
  • 3/4 tsp
Method
  • Wash the urad dal and soak it for 4 to 5 hours in a big vessel.
  • Drain the water and grind it into a fine paste. Add little water (1 tsp) if needed.
  • Check the batter consistency. It should be almost as thick as Dosa Batter.
  • Add little salt and keep the batter aside.
  • Pressure cook the chana dal with enough water.
  • Mash the cooked chana dal properly or simply grind it into a smooth paste.
  • In a pan, cook the jaggery and then add the chana dal into it. Cook on low heat.
  • Add cardamom powder and grated coconut to it.
  • Cook the mixture until it becomes a thick paste.
  • Once cooked, mash the mixture again lightly. (You will know that the dal is finely cooked, once it starts leaving the sides of the pan.)
  • Allow it to cool down.
  • Divide into equal portions and make small balls.
  • In a frying pan, heat the oil.
  • Coat these balls with the thick urad dal batter on all its sides and then fry them in oil until golden brown in color.
  • Drain the excess oil on a kitchen towel and then serve hot to your guests.
