Aren’t Medu vada’s a good choice with ‘Chai’?

Saumya Nair

I had a sudden urge from my taste buds within to make something extra with a steaming hot “Chai” or as we call Tea.

I usually prepare some interesting recipes that go well with Tea during evening.

And for my husband who comes home after a tiresome 12 hr shift , evening snack is a must.

So thought of sharing one of the recipes what meant to be a must try as I found all the ingredient available in my kitchen.

Meanwhile my little one was taking a nap , I grabbed this opportunity to get busy with the preparations in kitchen.

Medu Vada !

I soaked urad dal in water for 3 hrs.

Grinded urad dal forming a thick paste without adding water.
Getting ready with other ingredients to be mixed in the Medu Vada batter.

  • Black pepper
  • Green chilly
  • Onions
  • Curry leaves.

And there goes my first Vada into the hot oil .
Make sure the oil is not too hot otherwise Vada’s won’t cook well from inside and becomes brownish from outside.

There goes coconut chutney , hot cup of tea with the Vada’s .

And the crispy vadas ended up with some good conversation and messed up kitchen.

Note : Grind more if you need a smooth batter.

This happens to be my first successful try and will get into more of such “craved forever” Indian recipes that will be shared soon in my blog 😀
