Cut the palakottai into 2. Peel the outer thin white skin. Pressure cook palakottai in enough water with 2 pinch salt till soft. I cooked for 3 whistles. Drain water completely and transfer to mixer jar or food processor.
To this, add ginger piece and grind it to a smooth paste without adding any water and transfer to a mixing bowl.
Drain and grind the channa dal to a smooth paste without adding any water and transfer to the mixing bowl. You can first grind the palakottai and then grind the chana dal in the same jar.
Chop the onions, green chili, curry leaves finely and add it to the ground pastes.
Add fennel seeds, salt, mix well and make small lemon sized balls and keep it ready.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan and when it is hot enough, take each ball, flatten slightly between both your palms and gently drop into the hot oil. Cook 3-4 vadais at a time and do not fill the whole pan with the fritters.
Cook till golden brown and drain on a kitchen paper.
Serve hot with tea or coffee.
