Uzhunnu Vada, or Medu Vada, is a popular South Indian savory fritter made from a deep-fried, doughnut-shaped batter of black gram (urad dal), known for its crispy exterior and soft, fluffy interior. It’s a common breakfast item or tea-time snack, typically served with coconut chutney and sambar.
Ingredients & Preparation
- Urad Dal (Black Gram): Soaked and ground into a thick, fluffy batter.
- Seasonings: Green chillies and curry leaves are often added to the batter for aroma and flavor.
