Instructions
1
To begin making the bulb greens Vada Sambar formula; we will first soak the dal for about 3 hours.Using a strainer, strain all the excess moisture from the urad dal.
2
We need to use very little moisture to grind the urad dal, so that you can shape them well if you are deep frying.Next we will grind the dal, along with ginger and green chillies using a food processor or a mixer grinder into a very velvety paste.
3
Make sure toss in very little moisture while grinding the dal to make a velvety paste.
4
Transfer the paste to a mixing bowl. toss in in the diced onions, coriander leaves into the paste.

swirl around well to combine the fixings well into the vada paste.Next we will preheat the Kuzhi Paniyaram wok and toss in in a little oil into each cavity; once the wok is well heated spoon the mini bulb greens vada mixture into each of the cavities.
6
seal the wok and allow it to steam until you notice that the top looks cooked. After a couple moments of steaming of notice the top part of the mini bulb greens vada looks cooked.
7
At this point you could toss in a little more oil and then flip the vada so it can get cooked and crisp from both sides.
8

9
Once the pressure releases naturally, open the crafting and mash the toor dal until soft.
10
Keep aside.Into a pressure cooker; toss in the tamarind moisture, onions, radish, carrot, sambar ground mix and table salt.
11
Pressure prepare for 2 whistles and turn off the mildly hot.toss in the cooker toor dal into the sambar moisture and bring to a brisk bubble.
