  Hi Vysnavi,
  Here i'm pasting the recipe of Methu vadai given my Mrs.Mano in Tamilnadu Delicacies long back, give it a try. Good Luck!
  
  ULUNTHU VADAI OR METHU VADAI:
  Whole black grams or black grams with the skin are suitable for making this vadais. Soak 1 cup of this black gram with 1tbsp raw rice in water for 2 hours. If it is skinned, then wash and remove the skin completely before grinding it. Grind the ulunthu without water for a few minutes and then, by sprinkling a little water for 2 or three times , grind the ulunthu to a thick, fluffy paste. It is to better to grind the ulunthu in a grinder than a blender . Lastly, add enough salt and grind for a few minutes. Take away the batter. Heat the kadai and pour enough oil. Wet yr hands in water and Take a lemon sized ball and flatten it into a vadai on a greased polythene paper with the wet hands. Make a hole in the centre. Toss it in the oil carefully and fry it on both sides to a golden brown colour. The fire should not be high. Otherwise the inner portion will not be cooked. It should be a medium fire. The rice is added to make the vadais crisp on the outer layer. You can add chopped onions, finely chopped ginger and green chillies, curry leaves, coriander leaves and whole peppercorns to the batter before frying the vadais in the oil. You can keep the batter in the fridge for a few hours. But it is better to fry the vadais immediately after grinding the ulunthu. If you soak 2tbsp lentils with the black gram and then grind it, the vadais will not absorb much oil when frying them.
