I have posted Urad Dhal vada (medu vada) and Thayir vada earlier. I remember seeing microwave version sometime ago on Sun TV. I wanted to give it a try. So when I made original Thayir vada I kept the dough in the fridge to try out baked one. To my surprise I couldn’t find any difference between baked and fried one.. It is extremely good and tasty.
Ingredients

1 teaspoon Raw rice
2 -3 nos. of green chillies
1 Inch Ginger
1 tablespoon thuar Dhal
1 teaspoon black pepper
A sprig of curry leaves (Chopped finely)

Yogurt – 3 Cups
Green Chillies – 5-7 ( I have used 6. Chopped finely)

Method:
Making yogurt sauce:
Grind the Cashew nuts, green chillies, grated coconut with 2 tablespoon of yogurt. Add rest of the yogurt and salt and whip the yogurt. Keep it aside
