- Soak the bengal gram dal for an hour. Drain all the water and grind it to a coarse paste along with dry red chillies, ginger and garlic.
- Mix finely chopped onion, curry leaves, asafoetida, fennel seeds and salt to the ground dal paste.
- Make small balls of this dal paste (blueberry sized) and cook it using any of the following methods:-
- (a) Steam it using a idli stand or a vegetable steamer for 8-10 minutes.
- (b) Shallow fry/ pan fry in a frying pan with little oil till it turns golden brown.
- (c) Place the small balls in a microwave safe plate and microwave for 2-3 minutes.
- Keep these vada pieces ready while you prepare the gravy.
- (You can also prepare the gravy using left over masala vada. Scramble the vadas into tiny pieces and proceed.)
- For the curry, heat oil in a pan and splutter the mustard seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds,cinnamon,cloves and curry leaves.
- Add the finely chopped onions and green chillies. Fry them till it turns golden brown.
- Add the ginger - garlic paste and fry for a minute. Next add the chopped tomatoes and cook till the tomatoes are totally mashed up.
- Add salt, turmeric powder, red chilly powder and coriander powder. Cover and cook till the oil separates from the masala.
- Add about 2-3 cups of water and bring it to boil.
- Add the tiny vada pieces to the curry. Simmer for about 5 minutes so that the gravy will be absorbed by the vada pieces.
- Check for salt and the gravy consistency and adjust if needed. The curry will continue to thicken as it rests.
- Finally add chopped cilantro and serve hot.
