Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Moong Dal washed and soaked overnight
  • 32 oz Greek yogurt or plain
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2-3 gr chilies
  • 1 tsp Eno
  • Water as needed for Grinding Dal
  • Water as needed to whip yogurt

Instructions
 

  • Grind dal with Gree chilies and as little water as possible.
  • Prepare 4 bowls by putting oil in them.
  • We will make 4 vadas at a time
  • In a bowl,Put 4 tbsp batter, in it add 1/4 tsp Eno and mix(See Pictures below).
  • Put about 1 tbsp batter in each bowl(see pictures below)
  • Microwave the 4 bowls for 1 minutes 15 seconds.
  • Let it cool completely.
  • Remove from bowl and dunk in yogurt.
  • Do the same for the remaining dal

Notes

If consuming right away,put in water or buttermilk, squeeze and then put in yogurt. If eating after a few hours, no need to put in water/buttermilk, it will absorb the water from yogurt and get soft in a few hours. I like to save some yogurt, just before serving add additional yogurt and THEN decorate Red Chili Powder, Roasted Cumin powder and with Hari and Meethi chatni.
