Notes
You dont even need a chutney for this vada.
Make sure that u start doing the vada's immediately after u add all the contents and make sure that ur batter should be thick paste before u add the rest of ingredients.
You can even add dry mint leaves instead of fresh ones.
And it's not compulsory to add the same proportins of the ingredients to the batter as i have given, u can vary the quantity depending on ur taste also…
Hope u enjoy this item.
