Cooking Steps
Coriander Vada:
Step 1 :
Wash the whole coriander, cut the stems and chop finely. Keep them aside.

Make a paste by grinding cumin seeds, garlic cloves and green chillies.
Step 3 :
Pour small quantities of water to start forming the dough.
Step 4 :
Knead gently to make the dough soft. Set it aside.
Dough:
Step 1 :
In a large wide vessel, mix besan, rice flour, turmeric powder, chopped coriander, garlic-chilli paste, and sesame seeds.
Step 2 :
Add salt to taste.
Cooking and Frying/Roasting
Step 1 :
Preheat your steamer or cooker by filling water up to the base of the plates when placed inside. Bring the water to a boil by covering the lid.
Step 2 :
Divide the dough into parts and form a cylindrical shape with your hands. Keep in mind the size of your steamer plates.
Step 3 :
If you have smaller plates, you can make round lemon-sized balls and flatten them into a circle.
Step 4 :
Grease the steamer plates with ghee, arrange the dough shapes with a 1/2-inch gap between each, and set the plates inside the steamer or cooker.
Step 5 :
Let it steam for about 15-20 minutes.
Step 6 :
Take a fork, knife or toothpick to prick and check if the vadas are cooked through.
Step 7 :
Cool them and slice the cylindrical-shaped steamed dough into pieces (you do not have to slice them if you have made them into circles).
Step 8 :
Take a frying pan, pour oil and heat it on a high flame till the oil gets hot.
Step 9 :
Then reduce to medium flame and fry the slices.
Step 10 :
If you do not prefer to fry, you can roast them golden brown on a hot flat pan with oil smeared on them.
Step 11 :
Serve it with the preferred dip.
