Here are the ingredients and steps to make this recipe!
¼ cup Water

¾ tsp black Salt

¼ tsp fresh cracked Pepper

¼ tsp Mustard Seeds

¼  tsp Chaat Masala

¼ tsp Red Chilli powder

Pinch Asafoetida or Hing

1 tbsp. finely diced fresh ginger

1 tbsp minced green chilli

1 tbsp of chopped Coriander

Optional ½ tsp of Baking powder

Oil for frying

The first step is to soak the Urad dhal in water for about 8 hours

Wash the dhal and grind to a paste with the help of a little water, leave this for 6 – 8 hours to ferment in the fridge

Add all the ingredients and mix well


Heat up the oil and once hot, add a tbsp of the hot oil to the batter and mix

Using an ice cream scoop drop the batter into the hot oil and allow to turn a nice golden brown while the inside cooks till it’s nice and spongy

Drain them on some kitchen towels to absorb the excess oil
