Moong Dal Vada / Yellow Split lentil fritters (not fried or baked)

Me and my husband, both are very health conscious.  After certain age you have to take care of your health too. We both are over 40s and not only that from the beginning we used to eat less fry food, used part skim cheese , milk, brown rice, WW flour where ever its possible. But still sometimes I just craved those fry food and since I got paniyaram I use it all the time.  You have seen my previous Vada Pav and stuffed Paniyram, and now Moong Dal vada in this. So now you get the idea what we can do in this pan. So lets start making it.

Ingredients :

1 cup split yellow moong dal
1 finely chopped green chili
1 tsp grated ginger
Pinch of hing and baking powder
salt to taste
few strings of chopped coriander
2 tsp oil

Method:

Wash and soak dal in water for 3-4 hours.
Grind dal finely in blender.
Add all the ingredients in the batter except oil.
Add water if batter is too thick otherwise vada will be hard.
Heat the paniyaram pan. Add  tsp oil in paniyaram, when its hot add tsp of batter in each holes and cook until it leaves side.
Flip it in cook on other side too.
Take it out in plate and serve it along with fry green chilies and raw onions.

Have it with hot cup of tea and just munch it for evening snack.
