Ullunthu vellam methu vadai (Soft urad dhal & jaggery vada)

Ullunthu vellam methu vadai (Soft urad dhal & jaggery vada) - Preparation time 35 mins
Mom used to make this two types of vadai during pongal festival (Bhogi). Vellam vadai and milagu vadai. These vadai's will be different but tasty. She used to make this occasionally. Try making this.

Ingredients:-
Urad dhal - 1 cup (washed and soaked for 1/2 an hr)
Salt - a pinch
Jaggery (Vellam) - 2 tbsp (or medium lemon size)
Water - Only to sprinkle while grinding
Oil - To deep fry

Preparation method:-
Remove water from soaked urad dhal and grind in the grinder for few mins when it is almost soft add jaggery till the flour is fluffy.
Water is not required because adding jaggery while grinding itself will making the flour to desired consistency.
Add pinch salt to vellam vada flour to increase the sweet taste.
Heat the oil for deep frying. 
Take a silver sheet. Make small ball in the flour and make vada using the silver foil and fry in medium hot oil. If oil is too hot the vada will get burned.
When cooked and golden brown remove from oil and transfer to bowl. If excess oil remove using tissue.
