What is the most usual type of Vada?
Namaste ~
I had some in Bangalore with a coconut
chutney.
They had little seeds (rai?) and I think pieces of kadi patta ...but I do not recall very clearly.
Also, although I have since lost the recipe, I saw a recipe for Golden Vadas in The Times of India ... I think they were made with yellow splits as part of the batter, and had roasted dals ...they were for a festival, although I forgot which one ...
Have you anything like that among your recipes? They looked delicious!!
I forgot the chutney that went with them... I think it was a tomato chutney.
Thank you very much!
