Mysore Vada (Mixed Lentils Fritters)

Usually for the festivals I make Paruppu Vada or Ulunthu Vada. I happened to read the recipe of a famous South Indian Chef for Mysore Vada recently and hence tried that today. It turned out very delicious and surprisingly the crispiness of the Vada lasted for a long time.
