Directions
- Soak green gram for about 5 to 6 hours. Wash well and drain the excess water. Grind it along with green chilli, ginger (chop and add) and salt to a coarse paste. No need to add any water. Remove and add asafetida powder and chopped onion. Mix well.
- Heat oil in a kadai. Keep the stove in medium heat. Take a small lemon size dough and flatten it slightly. Put it in the hot oil and fry till it turns golden brown.
