My hubby LOVES vada. He orders vada every single time we got out for breakfast or evening snack. I don’t enjoy deep fried/oily stuff.So this vada was cooked for the family members and the verdict I got from the vada lover –‘ This is GOOD!’.

Rava Vada Recipe

This is instant vada recipe. There is no soaking, no grinding, no fermenting, no waiting…all you do is mix rava and curd add all the ingredients to it, made vadas and relish it.

  1. Add semolina, chopped onions, chopped green chilies, chopped ginger, cumin seeds, chopped curry leaves, asafoetida, salt to taste. Mix well.

  2. Add 1 tablespoon yogurt at a time and mix well. Keep adding yogurt little at a time and mix until you get a batter that has the consistency of medhu vada batter(not too runny or too thick)

  3. Cover and rest the batter for 15 minutes while you heat oil in a deep bottom pan for deep frying.

  4. Before frying, mix batter for 1 or 2 minutes well.

  5. Wet your right hand well by dipping inside water and take a small ball of batter. Shape into round and then flatten into a disc shape. Now use your thumb to make hole in the middle and drop it in oil (you can follow banana leaf method where the vadas are shaped on banana leaf and then slide the shaped vadas into hot oil)

  6. Be very careful while doing this and stand as far as possible from hot oil. DEFINITELY no kids around you while you are deep frying the vadas.

  7. Fry on medium-low flame, turn the vadas and fry till both the sides turn crisp and golden brown.

  8. Remove from oil and let it sit on kitchen towel for excess oil to be absorbed. Repeat the process for rest of the batter.

  9. Crunchy hot and delicious vadas are ready to be served. The vadas are best when paired with Chutney and Sambar. DELICIOUS!

  • ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
  • ½ teaspoon ginger, fine chopped

Instructions

  • Into a bowl add semolina, chopped onions, chopped green chilies, chopped ginger, cumin seeds, chopped curry leaves, asafoetida, salt to taste. Mix well.

Notes

1. The batter should be rested well. And after resting make sure to mix batter well to make smooth and fluffy batter which will result in fluffy vadas.

2. Chirotti rava is a very fine rava that is best for instant vadas and other Indian sweets. You won't get good vada texture with other normal rava, so use chirotti rava only to make these vadas.
