Step 1
Rinse the 1 cup red lentils and soak in 2 cups water for 15 minutes. Drain well, then blend with 1 chopped onion and 1 tsp salt into a thick paste.
Step 2
Heat 0.5 cup oil in a skillet over medium-high. Drop spoonfuls of the lentil paste into the hot oil, flattening slightly. Fry until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix 1 cup shredded coconut, 0.5 cup yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Add a chopped red chili or a pinch of chili flakes if you like heat.
Step 4
Serve the hot fritters with the coconut chutney on the side. Enjoy immediately for the best crunch.
