1. Thoroughly wash and soak beans for 6 hours.

4. Mix in rest of the ingredients. Add salt and hot oil at the time of deep-frying.
5. In a frying pan, heat oil on a high flame.

7. With wet fingertips, drop few, small round balls of the batter in hot oil.
8. Deep fry till light golden brown in colour.
9. Remove and drain them. Repeat for rest of the batter. Serve hot with coriander or khajur-imli chutney.
