Method:
Slice onions vertically. Finely chop green chillies, and ginger. Add them to sliced onions. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and squeeze between fingers to make the onions soft . Adding of salt brings out the moisture from onions.
Add Besan , rice flour, red chilli powder, Salt, Asafoetida, turmeric powder, and curry leaves to the onion and mix well . Knead it nicely by only using moisture from onions. We should not add any water. The moisture content in onions is enough to get a thicker dough.
Heat oil in a pan. Test, if its hot by adding a pinch of dough. If it sizzles up immediately, then the oil is hot. Take small amounts of dough and drop it gently in the oil.
Keep the flame in medium . Flip and fry the vadas evenly in all sides. Remove the fried ulli vadas from oil and place it in a plate having paper towel to drain the excess oil
