Urad dal vada is a simple and easy ramadan special iftar snack delicacy which is made using urad dal and herbs. It is deep fried by making small round balls and it is a perfect snack dish.

It is not medu vada which is a south indian popular breakfast delicacy but a simple deep fried urad dal vada.

urad dal vada or ramadan iftar snack

It requires few herbs lke coriander leaves and green chillies and the dal needs to be soaked for a while that is for few hours. It does not require fermentation. It can be deep fried instantly as soon as the batter is blended.

This snack dish is commonly made during ramadan and I try to make various pakoda recipes or vada recipes using various dals as snacks are usually preferred to be made for the sacred month during iftar time.

Making plain pakodas all the time gets boring for ramadan and making them and trying them out with different lentils is an interesting way of breaking fasts…

Whole day fast is broken by dates followed by various snacks which can be any fried recipe. This recipe uses only  urad dal but along with the black gram, coriander leaves and green chillies are mixed together and blended.

         Below are the recipe details for making urad dal vada which is made by using split black gram.

Steps for making urad dal vada:
