10-12 medium-sized green chili peppers deseeded and chopped (I prefer banana or anaheim pepper)
1 cup besan chickpea flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
½ teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
½ teaspoon cumin powder
½ teaspoon ajwain seeds
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons oil
Water as needed

In a mixing bowl, combine the besan, salt, turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, ajwain seeds, and baking powder. Mix well.
1 cup besan, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon turmeric powder, ½ teaspoon red chili powder, 1 teaspoon coriander powder, ½ teaspoon cumin powder, ½ teaspoon ajwain seeds, ½ teaspoon baking powder
Add the chopped green chili peppers and mix well. Add water as needed to make a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to hold its shape when scooped.
10-12 medium-sized green chili peppers, Water
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
Scoop a spoonful of the batter and shape it into a round vada. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Lightly brush the vadas with oil.
2 tablespoons oil
Place the vadas in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure there is enough space between each vada.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes until they are golden brown and crisp.
Serve hot with chutney or sauce of your choice. Enjoy!
