Instant Rice Flour Vadai

For Varalakshmi Nombu, I was rushed for time and could not make the regular medhu vadai for prasadham, instead I made the rice flour vadai. I had to make two portions of the recipe as it disappeared very fast. Usually I make it for an afternoon tea and add onions to it, but since it is for prasadham I made it without onions. It tastes delicious and has a crunchy texture when it is hot off the stove. When it cools down, it is still a little crisp and delicious. A simple and gluten free vadai to make anytime. 


Gadgets:

Frying Pan
Slotted Spatula
Measuring Spoons and Cups
Cutting Board
Knife
Bowl


Ingredients:

Rice Flour - 1 cup
Salt
Asafoetida Powder - 1/4 tsp
Ginger Grated - 1 tsp
Curry Leaves - a few
Cilantro Chopped - 2 tbsp
Green Chillies - 2 finely chopped
Yogurt - 2 tbsp
Oil - 2 tsp plus 1 cup for frying the vadai
Water - Enough to form firm dough

Preparation:


1. Heat the oil in the frying pan on medium high heat. Mix all the dry ingredients together and add curry leaves, cilantro and ginger to it. Mix well and add two tsp of oil to it.

2. Add yogurt and give it a mix. Add water a little at a time and bring the mix together to form a dough.

3. Make quarter cent balls and flatten it and make a hole in the center. Fry the vadai's and serve it with chutney or ketchup.

  6. Hi Anonymous, Thank you for trying out this recipe. The vadai is supposed to on the crispy side but the inside will be soft. Please adjust the oil temperature and do not fry past the stay when the bubbles stop forming in the oil. Let me know if this adjustment helped. Thanks again
