Broken Wheat Vadai

This is the best vadai I have ever had so far. Though I go back one foot away from anything that is deep fried , this one is sure one guilt free recipe. It doesn't drink so much oil and moreover it is made of wheat with full of fibre and versatile too.Versatile because you can have it like curd vadai as well :).
When Sharmi announced Tea Time Snack Event I cant think of anything better than this.This straight goes to her event.


Ingredients :

  1. Broken wheat - 2 cups
  2. Small onions - 10 nos.
  3. Grated coconut - 6 tbspn
  4. Red chillies - 6 nos.
  5. Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp.
  6. Salt to Taste
  7. Oil to deep fry.

Method :
  1. Soak Broken wheat for 15 mins and then grind it along with all other ingredients without any water.Batter should be really thick.
  2. Then pat the batter little thicker than masal vada on a plastic sheet and slid it into hot oil to deep fry.
  3. Slip vada one after the other otherwise they will stick to each other .
  4. Once the vada puffs up , just turn it to the other side and will be done .
How to Eat :
  1. It tastes good by itself .
  2. You can have it along with chutney also.
  3. You can soak it in curd and make it like curd vadai. 
  4. Cut the vadai and drizzle few drops of ghee into it and can be had.
  5. You can have it by stuffing chopped onions,chopped green chillies, grated carrot,coriander leaves mixed with lime juice also.
