Ingredients

• oil to deep fry

To mix:

• 1 heaped cup aval(thin poha)
• 2 tbsp rice flour
• 1 tbsp curd
• 1/3 cup onion finely chopped
• 1 tsp jeera
• 1/2 tsp ginger finely chopped
• 1 no green chillies finely chopped
• 1 tbsp coriander leaves finely chopped
• 1 tbsp curry leaves finely chopped
• 1 tsp red chilli powder
• salt
• water as needed

Instructions

• Rinse poha well, drain water completely.By now it should have turned soft as I used thin poha.If you use thick poha then soak for few mins then proceed for it to soften.To a mixing bowl add all the ingredients listed under 'to mix'.
• Mix this well first.Add little water if the mixture is too dry.The mixture should be moist and not too dry.Now make a small lemon sized ball.
• Flatten it slightly.Repeat to finish.
• Heat oil add the vadais in batches.Keep flame in medium flame,turn over and fry until golden brown.Repeat to finish.

Notes

• Flame should be in medium while frying else it may drink more oil.
• Also the mixture should be only slightly moist for it to hold together.
• It should not too tight else it may crumble while frying.
• I used thin poha so just while rinsing itself it became soft.
• If you use thick poha you need to soak for few mins.
