Urad Dal Vadi
Dried urad-dal dumpling; book gives weight only, so no spoon or piece conversion.
Instead of Black gram dumplings
Nothing exactly matches urad dal vadi's fermented lentil flavour; bori is the closest.
Dried lentil dumplingsUse the same weight; fry in oil until puffed before adding. It may be saltier, so taste before adding salt.
Dried mung bean dumplingsUse the same weight; fry or soak as the recipe directs. It is a similar dried lentil dumpling.
Kashmiri vadiUse the same weight; fry until lightly crisp. It has a different spice mix, so the flavour will change.
