Masala Vadai | Paruppu Vadai can be made as a starter when we have guests at home and can be made during teatime as a snack. My family loves this and especially my daughter is a big fan of masala vadai.
My mom makes this with only channa dal, but i learnt thisĀ version from my relative. Check the recipe of aama vadai, which we make for bogi pandigai and aavani avittam. Also check my no onion no garlic Cabbage vadai and Ulundu vadai too.

Hi Jeyshri I am an ardent follower of your recipes. One doubt I have on Masal vadai. Can I soak the dals overnight. The reason is I am traveling on Saturday morning. Planning to grind the batter early morning and carry the batter with me make vadai in the evening
Thanks a lot, Malathi. So happy to know that.
Yes, you can soak overnight or even grind the previous day night and take it the next day. Just add salt before you make the vadais
