That is what holds the entire vadai together. You shoudn't have the need to add other dhals to make it hold.<BR/>I am sorry you didn't have much luck making them, but these are one of the very few Indian fried snacks that turn out well with baking. So, I would recommend you try it once again, maybe with a smaller quantity if you are apprehensive.<BR/>And yes spraying the baking tray is important like I have mentioned. That way it becomes easier to lift them out.anudivyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05434767236694075431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186525396046918181.post-28008009600164289172008-11-04T15:13:00.000-08:002008-11-04T15:13:00.000-08:00I just tried this recipe yesterday.

So my mom told me to mix other types of dals to make it hold together -used moong, masur, toor and meenapappu as well as channa. Then I also sprayed oil on the baking sheet as well as on the blobs. It was much better then! Thought I would share that with you and get your opinion!Roshnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01107573625336456428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186525396046918181.post-17969058181898306962008-10-13T16:42:00.000-07:002008-10-13T16:42:00.000-07:00I love that these vadais are baked!I love that these vadais are baked!TBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730267615864699764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186525396046918181.post-37240074662591890552008-10-09T09:21:00.000-07:002008-10-09T09:21:00.000-07:00Thanks for visiting my blog and yr value added com...Thanks for visiting my blog and yr value added comnts.
