Method
Check the sundakkai vathal and remove any stalks or dark pieces. Keep the berries ready in a small bowl.
Heat the oil in a small kadai on medium flame for 1 minute. The oil should become hot but should not smoke.
Add the sundakkai vathal and lower the flame. Fry for 30–60 seconds, stirring continuously, until the berries puff slightly and turn golden to light brown and crisp.
Remove the vathal with a slotted spoon and drain on a plate. Cool for 2 minutes before serving so it becomes crisp.
