Wada, Meduwada Recipe

Directions:

1. Urad Dal Vada: Soak the reqd amount of Urad Dal for 3-4 hours. Then grind it without adding a lot of water. The vada batter shd not be too soft. If it is too soft or if u add a lot of water then the vadas tend to soak up a lot oil while frying. It comes with practice. While grinding add a little salt. Add a little less than what u think is necessary becoz vadas don't need a lot of salt. Heat oil for deep frying. Now take a plastic sheet and sprinkle a little water on it. Your hands should also be wet. Put a little batter on the sheet and spread it in the shape of a vada(doughnut). Now slowly slide the vada into the oil. Fry till done. If u cannot be bothered with the whole art of making these vadas just take a spoon and put the batter in the oil in small lumps.
