Cooking Steps
Step 1: To begin making the Bajri Methi Na Vada Recipe, combine both the bajra flour and the whole wheat flour along with the finely chopped fenugreek leaves, red chili powder, coriander powder, salt, green chilli and yogurt in a mixing bowl
Step 2: Bring all the ingredients together by rubbing them between your fingers
Step 3: This will make them combine and it will begin to get lumpy
Step 4: Add a little water at a time to bring it together, and knead it into a stiff dough
Step 5: At this stage, be careful not to add too much water at one go, or the dough will have excess moisture
Step 6: Set the dough aside in the same mixing bowl and cover it
Step 7: Let it rest for 15-20 minutes
Step 8: In a small bowl combine the cumin seeds, sesame seeds and carom (ajwain) seeds
Step 9: Set aside till required
Step 10: Preheat oil in a kadhai over a medium heat
Step 11: While the oil is getting warmed up, divide the prepared dough into small marble sized portions
Step 12: Take each ball and roll it between your palms to make a smooth ball
Step 13: Then flatten each ball out with your fingers, into a small disc
Step 14: Ensure that the edges along the circumference are not cracked
Step 15: Sprinkle a pinch of the seeds mixture over the vada and press them gently with your fingers, to embed them into the vada
Step 16: Continue this till all the vadas are prepared, lining them up as you go, in preparation to deep fry them
Step 17: When the oil is hot enough, add the vadas one by one into the hot oil
Step 18: Fry them in small batches, taking care not to overcrowd the kathai
Step 19: Deep fry till golden and crisp on both the sides
Step 20: Then, using a slotted spoon, drain the excess oil and transfer them to a plate lined with an kitchen paper to absorb the excess oil
Step 21: Serve the Bajri Methi Na Vada along with Pudina Chutney and a steaming cup of Masala Chai to bring an extra crunch to your chai time or chai party
