Moong Dal Vada (Lentil Fritters) - Low Fat Ebelskiver Pan Version
Report
Moong Dal Vada recipe to make in a healthier way with the same delicious taste we crave for. I have used a seasoned cast iron takoyaki plate to shallow fry instead of deep-frying. This proposed method makes this appetizer much better on the health chart.

Instructions
- Green Gram Lentil Preparation - Wash and soak the lentils for two hours.
- Then strain it and blend in in a blender.
- Transfer the batter into a mixing bowl and add green chilies, ginger, cilantro and spices (salt, red chili flakes, cumin seeds and asafoetida).
- If you are making fritters for Ram Ladoo, then add the optional ingredients; radish daikon and green onions.
- Mix it rigorously to make it uniform.
- Heat the seasoned cast iron takoyaki plate on medium heat and brush each cavity with oil.
- Now pour the batter in each of the cavities and flip it after few minutes when bottom side is brown.
- If the pan is seasoned properly then the batter won't stick to the pan and fritters should easily flip with just a stick.
- After removing from the pan, let the fritters rest on mesh to keep the crispy while they cool a little bit.
- Your fritters are now ready.
