The consistency of the batter will come from what amount of water we add while grinding the soaked split black gram into batter.Water should be added very little by little,so as to make you easy to grind the urad dal.Adding too much water will make the batter watery and the vada won't get its proper shape,the vadas might also become soggy or soak up too much of oil.
Ingredients,
Urad dal/Skinned split black gram - 1 1/2 cups
Fresh coconut pieces - 1/2 cup
Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon (crushed in a mortar and pestle,you can even skip this if you don't want to )
Curry leaves - 8-10 ( roughly torn)
Hing/ Asafoetida - a dash
Green chillies -3-4 (chopped in small pieces, if you want more spice add a few more green chillies)
Salt - According to taste ( about a teaspoon)
Oil - Enough to fry
