To make the chutney, first combine coconut, coriander leaves, green chilies, cumin seeds, roasted peanuts, salt, and 1/4 cup water in a mixer jar and grind them into a fine paste. To prepare the sweet yogurt, place the yogurt in a bowl, add the powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt, and mix well.
To prepare the vada mixture, place soaked tapioca pearls in a large plate. Add mashed potatoes, ginger-green chili paste, salt, cumin seeds, coarsely ground peanuts, and lemon juice. Mix everything thoroughly to form a smooth mixture. Now, apply a little oil to your hands and form the vadas from this mixture. Heat oil in a pan and fry the vadas over low heat until golden and crispy. Then, remove them on tissue paper to drain off excess oil. Serve them with coconut-coriander chutney and sweet yogurt.
