Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

1
Soak the red lentils in cold water for at least 2 hours, then drain thoroughly.
Yaklaşık 2 sa.
Aşçının notu: Soaking helps soften the lentils for easier blending and a smoother texture.
2
Transfer the drained lentils to a food processor.
3
Pulse the lentils until they form a coarse paste, ensuring some texture remains.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
Aşçının notu: Avoid over-processing; you want a rustic consistency, not a smooth puree.
4
In a large bowl, combine the lentil paste with the red onion, green chili, curry leaves, grated ginger, crushed garlic, turmeric powder, and salt.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
5
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
Aşçının notu: Using your hands can help incorporate everything evenly.
6
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches about 170-180°C (340-350°F).
Yaklaşık 5 dk.
Aşçının notu: Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for even cooking.
7
Take about two tablespoons of the lentil mixture and flatten it into a small, round patty, approximately 5-6 cm in diameter.
Yaklaşık 5 dk.
Aşçının notu: Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mixture from sticking.
8
Gently press one shrimp onto the center of each patty.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
9
Carefully slide the vadai into the hot oil, frying a few at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
Aşçının notu: Overcrowding the pan can lower the oil temperature and make the vadai greasy.
10
Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Yaklaşık 8 dk.
Aşçının notu: Ensure the shrimp is cooked through and opaque.
11
Remove the Isso Vadai from the oil and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
12
Serve hot with a spicy dip or chutney.
