Chef's Notes
Do not add water while grinding the split peas. Excess moisture will cause your vadas to disintegrate into an unholy mush in the frying pan.
Pro Tip
Keep your hands slightly wet when shaping the patties to prevent the sticky lentil mixture from gluing itself to your fingers.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to drain the soaked split peas properly, resulting in a batter so wet that the moment it touches the hot oil, it violently splatters like an angry Victorian ghost.
