Masala Vada (Fritters)


I know I've mentioned my love of vada (Mixed Veggie, Corn &Cabbage) before so sharing this tasty recipe for Masala Vada won't be a shock! These simple and quick gluten-free patties are deliciously spicy with just the perfect amount of crisp and crunch. It's great as a snack or a side dish. These tasty ones really showcase the mix of dals which gives them their great crunch, while balancing the spice from the red onions and chilies!

Here is my recipe:
