   i’m sure you will enjoy it more when it is made easier ! and one little tip, be sure to whip the batter thoroughly before frying it ..and if you have the patience, you could try making the traditional hole in the middle even while using the spoon to make the vadas ! cheers !

   yes, in fact the traditional method is to soak the urad dall for about 3 hrs, drain out the water fully and grind in a “wet grinder ” ( not mixie ! ), and whip it using a spoon or bare hand till it gets foamy.. if you do use the mixie, you will have to first grind with a wet grinder blade, and then use the whipper. ( btw, it would be very difficult to grind in a mixie, because you would have to add more than acceptable qtty of water, which in turn will make the doughnut difficult .. thanks &

   You have definitely made the ‘donut’ making part look flawlessly easy! I have yet to master.
   Can we soak dry urad dhal and grind into a paste as well? In this case do we use the whipper in the mixie or the grinder??

   Also thank you so much for showing in detail so many steps that many people in your situation would take for granted. I am still learning to use the Indian mixie… it’s such an overwhelming utensil!
