Chef's Notes
Treat your fermentation process like a delicate art form. If your kitchen is chilly, your batter will sleep in and miss its alarm, so find the warmest nook in your culinary kingdom.
Pro Tip
Do not skip the puffed rice! It is our secret weapon that guarantees the interior remains pillowy soft while the exterior achieves a magnificent crispness.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you rush the fermentation or dump your onions onto a freezing cold pan, you will end up with a sad, soggy rubber disc that could double as a spare tire for your chariot.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Our Jester insists that if your batter doesn't grow to double its size, it’s not fermentation, it’s just lazy dough taking a nap.
The Culinary Science
Wild yeasts and lactobacilli feed on the starches in the rice and urad dal during fermentation, producing carbon dioxide gas that gets trapped in the gluten network to create those magical bubbles.
