Grandmother and Elders have passed on to us a story which is about the Birbal. He was one of the nine Gems in the court of Akbar, the Mughal ruler who ruled Delhi from 1556 to 1605. Once Birbal was given punishment and sent to jail. He was permitted to have one foodgrain with him and nothing else will be given to him. He had chosen the Gram. Why? Since gram have many benefits, It can be consumed in many ways. It can be soaked overnight in water and eaten in morning raw? It taste good. It can be boiled, or it can be sprouted and eaten raw. It can be fried with other vegetables. It can be made into paste and cooked like a pancake. The popular item in every home is Besan- बेसन the gram flour.
Sprouted gram seeds with other raw vegetable
or fruits can be an ideal SALAD.
For making gram vada or pakodi पकौड़ी
You need gram soaked in water for overnight as per necessity, May be one cup.
One Onion,
One garlic,
Small piece
of ginger,
Green chilli as
per taste. Or red chilli?
If you want –green
coriander leaves.
But good
thing is that you can experiment with our Indian dishes. You can add many
spices if you like the taste. Coriander seeds, cumin. However हींग Asafetida is must, as it is considered medicinal properties and relieves stomach gas etc?
Oil in pan to
fry.

If you want, you
can add cut green chilli, onion, garlic, ginger, green coriander before
grinding the grams.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyw4beMtZLGFaYC27hR_Y1J0wW6z5rcKWfWcDi5er77WtD9zrhvTVxv5w7ZHgfFGKCctDyxCUnRs69ToOYGBAFbr-G-Q9XoeFovDkRfrQ3Lw9fCnPPYowVHFQhD77DVfiPRwRF/s1600/images+%252823%2529.jpg)

But otherwise
cut onion, garlic, ginger, green coriander leaves, green chilli into small
pieces. When paste is done, add these cut pieces into the paste.
Heat the oil
into a pan to fry gram. When oil is heated, roll gram paste/mixture into small balls.
Traditionally the paste is rolled into a large round shape that covers the palm
of your hand. It is advisable to drip your hand into water before making the
roll so as to stop paste from sticking to your hand.
Then as you
make balls immediately keep dropping these balls in the hot oil. The sizzling
sound of oil and air bubbles will tell you when they are done or just try to
take out these balls after one minute or see that they are not burnt?
my wife prefers small as if her small hands only get that much of paste therefore it becomes easy/ or handy for her make small vada as shown below. I had to take it accompanied with Tomato Ketchup

The another accompanying dish or drink is Butter milk. When did the human kind invent the butter milk? do you have any idea? i don't know? but time immemorial in India we heard the tales of Lord Krishna stealing the butter from his mother and neighbour's houses. He used to get thrashing and scolding for this stealing.
