HI!! I would love to try this recipe.. I have eaten Dal Vada in a restaurant before, and I really liked it.
I have been a frequent but quiet visitor of your blog for quite some time. I am a little sad you have stopped updating. I've been interested in cooking indian food for a long time and I often come here to see the delicious recipes that I might be able to try. But it has been a bit difficult since I have been having a lot of trouble to find the ingredients.
I saw that you are in San Jose -- where do you usually buy your groceries? I cannot find the dals that you have listed, or curry leaves... Could you please let me know! I would appreciate it very much! I am in San Jose near Milpitas.
Thanks a lot for visiting my blog regularly. We moved out of San Jose in May '09 and I did not get chance to update the site for sometime. You can find the ingredients I mentioned in any major indian grocery store like 'India cash and carry' in Sunnyvale.
I started adding new recipes recently - Keep visiting!
