150 gms jaggery
25 gms jeera to be roasted and powdered
chilly powder to taste

Soak the urad dal for at least two hours. Grind in a liquidiser with garlic and chillies. Add salt and baking powder and mix well. Heat about 1/2 kg oil in a karai and drop wada mixture into the oil in tablespoons. Remove when golden brown. Drop in cold water or thin lassi.

Make chutney by adding a glass of water to the imli and jaggery. Cool till thick. Add red chilli powder and jeera powder.

Place wadas on a flat plate, after dipping each vadi in a dahi. Pour more dahi on the top.
