You done an excellent job.
I love vada. I make many kind of vada. Some time I mix dhal like you did. Some time I make only with yellow split peas (instead of channa dhal). I also make vada with just urad dhal only too.

Thank you all so much for your feedback - I have always loved Indian food, when I was a young girl my mother was into yoga (long before it was so in fashion) and she fell in love with Indian cuisine, she was quite the cook and use to make me naan, all kinds of dal dishes, and these vada. My mom is too sick these days to talk much about recipes, but fortunately a very good friend of mine shared this recipe with me a few years ago - I do agree that Indian cuisine is becoming more and more mainstream, and I think anyone who considers themselves a cook should be able to prepare some of it - as with french, italian and the like - and it is so GOOD!!!

I fell in love with Indian cooking many years ago as a student in London, since then I have traveled to India more than 30 times, and of course living in Silicon Vslley there are so many great Indian restaurants, markets and Indians here! Oh and my DH works for INFOSYS based in Bangalore, guess that doesn't hurt. Plus I grow many of the ingredients in my garden-even curry leaf/murrieya koenigii.

Thats cool! Indian food is getting mainstream nowadays, I guess because of influence of Indian techies worldwide.
