Soak the dall in cold water for a day, then drain thoroughly.
Chop all the vegetable ingredients finely. Place the dall in a food
processor and process to a paste. Decant into a bowl, add turmeric,
salt and pepper, and vegetable ingredients and mix well.
Heat oil in a deep-frying pan. When it is hot, roll walnut-sized

fry until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain the gateaux on
kitchen towels. Serve hot, with drinks.
NOTES:

serves these as delicious late-night snacks, to accompany drinks.
* The choice of drinks served will depend on how spicy you make the
gateaux: cool beer or lager usually goes down well.
