Nilgiris Dahi balla 300g

This Nilgiris Dahi Balla 300g offers a convenient way to prepare the popular North Indian snack or appetizer. Dahi Balla (often spelled Dahi Bhalla) consists of soft, spongy lentil fritters (vadas) soaked in creamy, sweetened yogurt, and then typically garnished with various chutneys and spices. This 300g pack likely contains the pre-made lentil balls, which usually need to be soaked in water before being submerged in dahi (yogurt) and garnished. It's a refreshing, savory, and tangy dish, especially popular during festivals and as a street food. The primary ingredients for the ballas (fritters) themselves are urad dal (black gram lentils), often with a small amount of moong dal (split yellow lentils), seasoned with ginger, green chilies, salt, and sometimes asafoetida (hing), which are then deep-fried in vegetable oil. Consumers would then add their own yogurt, chutneys (tamarind and green chili/mint), and spices (roasted cumin powder, chili powder, black salt).
