Hello Friends,

Today i will tell you how to make round crispy medu vadas in minutes.


Tips to make crispy & perfectly shaped medu vadas:

#1. Soak urad dal for minimum 2 hours before grinding it in the mixer grinder.

#2. Then while grinding add little water every 2-3 spins & keep wiping the sides of grinder with a spatula.

#3. Don't add salt while grinding. You should add the salt just before frying the vada.

#4. Make sure that vada batter should be hard enough to hold because if the batter is too light, vada will absorb more oil.

#5. To make them super crispy add add rice flour or semolina flour (rava) to the batter.

#6. To check the vada formation just drop a small spoonful batter in a bowl of water. It should float to some extent.

#7. For beginners , shaping the vadas on the greased plastic cover is the easiest. Grease a plastic sheet with oil.

#8. Take a bowl of water wet your hands and place a portion of dough on plastic.

#9. Now make a hole in centre and shape it in form of round wada.

#10. Transfer wada on your wet palm and slide wada carefully in oil as oil may splash.

#11. Deep fry till both the sides are brown.

If you don't want to go through the hassle of shaping them using the plastic sheet then use a "Medu Vada Maker" -
