In a separate pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds. Add the curry leaves and green chilies and stir for a few more seconds.
Add the fried vadas and stir. Cook for a few minutes until the vadas are heated through. Add the tamarind paste, sugar and salt and stir. Cook for a few more minutes until the chutney thickens.
