Maddur vadai happens to be a very famous snack of Karnataka.It gets its name after the place it was created-Maddur.Until very recent I have not heard about or tasted this special snack.I watched this preparation in TV show last week and I tried it very soon.It is a very easy recipe and instant one too,with no soaking grinding :). Perfect snack for monsoon evenings.We enjoyed it with a hot cup of coffee while it was pouring cats and dogs outside )Try this and I am sure you will like it.The recipe I am posting here is the one I prepared based on the TV show.Maddur vadai
Star ingredients:Rice flour,rava
Time:30 minutes
Yield:12-15 vadai
Ingredients:
1/2 cup fine rice flour
1/2 cup fine rava (sooji)
1/2 cup all purpose flour/maida mavu
3 green chillies
1 big onion chopped fine
2 tablespoons oil
Salt
Oil fro deep frying
Method:
1.Mix all the 3 flours with salt and mix well. Add 2 tablespoon oil and mix with your fingers.
2.Chop green chillies and onions.Add to the flour crumbs and mix well.Now add very little water and knead to a stiff dough.
3.Heat oil for deep frying.Take a small ball sized dough and flatten it like vadai.
4.Deep fry from both sides till golden brown.Remove it to a tissue paper,serve hot.
Notes:
1.I actually sauteed the onions before adding and they turned out black after deep frying.So add raw onions to the dough.
2.Can reduce maida and increase rava for more crisp vadai
