ABOUT Medu vada RECIPE

Medu vada or urad dal vada a typical south Indian delicacy is a must in every south Indian house hold for breakfast or snacks for the evening which is generally referred to as tiffin. These are often referred to as savoury donuts because of the shape resembling donuts .Nothing can beat the taste of these when served hot with a cup of coffee ...TOTAL BLISS .these can be served with chutney, sambar or even just pickle. Or else these can be munched as it on their own. I don't need any thing else as accompaniment to just gobble it down. These are so addictive that you cant stop munching with one.

Sry to say don't soak dal for 4 to 5 hours and don't keep in refrigerator. Better soak it for 1/2 an hour or 45 minutes and prepare as soon as u grind it and add salt to it while grinding only.
