Ingredients
Dal Mixture
- 1 cup Split Chickpea roasted
- 1 cup Rice Flour
Aromatics and Spices
- ½ cup Onion finely chopped
- 2 tsp Garlic finely chopped
- 2 tsp Chili Flakes
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted chana dal and rice flour.
- Add the finely chopped onion, garlic, and chili flakes to the dal mixture.
- Season with salt. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan or kadai over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small drop of batter sizzles and floats to the top.
- Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, making small fritters.
- Fry the fritters until they turn golden brown and crispy, turning them occasionally for even cooking.
- This allows excess oil to drain off.
- Remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve the crispy chana dal fritters hot as a snack. These are delicious on their own or with a chutney of your choice.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For extra crunch, spread the coated channa dal in a thin, even layer on the baking tray or pan, ensuring they don’t overlap—this helps them roast evenly and crisply.
- If you prefer a smoky flavor, toss in a pinch of smoked paprika or char a few garlic cloves before mixing them in with the dal.
- To make this snack gluten-free, double-check that your rice flour is certified gluten-free, as some brands may be processed in facilities that handle wheat.
Expert Tips
- Experiment with different spices! Cumin, coriander, and chili powder are all great additions to roasted channa dal.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when roasting. This will ensure even cooking and maximum crispiness.
- For a variation, try adding a tablespoon of sesame oil or coconut oil to the coating mixture for a richer flavor.
Storage Instructions
- After cooling, store the roasted channa dal in an airtight container with a slice of bread or a few grains of uncooked rice to help absorb excess moisture and maintain crispiness for days.
