VAZHAPOO / BANANA FLOWER VADAI

INGREDIENTS:

1.Vazhapoo----1
2.Kadalai parupu(bengal gram)----1 cup
3.Red chillies-----3
4.Onion----1
5.Ginger---1/4 inch
6.Saunf/sombu---1/2 tsp
7.Curry leaves---few
8.Coriander leaves---few
9.Hing----a pinch
10.salt to taste
11.Oil to fry

METHOD:

This vadai is similar to masal vadai and i just added chopped vazhapoo to the vada mixture.
First u need to separate the florets and remove the thin stem.
Then u chop the florets and put in buttermilk to avoid discolouration.
I do the similar for plaintain too.
Now soak the dhal and red chillies for an hour.
Grind it with ginger without adding water.Maybe u can just sprinkle little.
Now add the chopped onions,hing,saunf,curry leaves and coriander leaves.
Now add the chopped florets too.
Take a lemon sized ball and flatten it using ur palm.
Deep fry in oil and serve with chutney or even rice.
It will be crispy and very tasty.Enjoy!!

Thank u!!
