Today I made Dal Wada for which the inspiration was my sis-in-law. A long long time ago, I tried making it but it was a BIG disaster. The one thing I didn't realise was we would have to shallow fry these wadai or else they will fall apart.
The other day when we were at my brother's place, my bhabi made wada with moong dal and that was a new item for me. My mom used to make them in a totally different way. Anyway the last time I ate wada was made the mother-in-law of my very good friends'. This is an Indian version of Falafel
The moong dal wada recipe will come along some other day but today is the recipe for the dal wada, a great dish for sunday breakfast or a tea time snack.
