SABUDANA VADA !!!

SABUDANA VADA
Serves: 2
Ingredients:

Method:
1. Soak sago (Sabudana) in water. Drain off all the water and keep it aside for half an hour to one hour (Depending on the quality, sometimes the sago needs to be soaked overnight in a little bit of water).
2. Mash the boiled potatoes.
3. Make a paste of salt and chilies in a grinder.
4. Now combine the sago, chili paste, grated and mashed potatoes, coriander leaves, red chili powder and peanut powder. Mix it properly using a little bit of water. 5. Make small balls of the mixture and flatten them. 6. Heat some oil or ghee in a pan.
7. Deep-fry these vadas till golden brown and crispy. 8. Serve hot with chutney. Tip: Grated raw potato makes the vadas crisp.

  1. nice to read this recipe, especially on the day of aashaaDhee ekaadashee! really useful one, tasty n quick!

    one more thing, just for information, when there are no sources such as roasted peanuts/ mixer/ food processor; the option for peanut powder is 'peanut butter - (crunchy)'. it gives a taste very near to that of 'roasted-peanut powder+ ghee(butter) +salt' .
