Ingredients: For Sabudana Vada Mixture: 

 1 cup sabudana (sago pearls)  

2 medium-sized potatoes, boiled and mashed  

1/2 cup roasted peanuts, coarsely ground  

1-2 green chilies, finely chopped 

 1 teaspoon black pepper powder (adjust to taste) 

 1 tablespoon lemon juice  Rock Salt to taste 

Fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped  Oil for frying For Serving: 

 Green chutney or sweet curd (optional) 

Instructions: 

Preparing Sabudana:

 1. Rinse the sabudana in a fine-mesh sieve until the water runs clear. 

2. Soak the rinsed sabudana in just enough water to cover them for 4-5 hours, or overnight. They should become soft and swell up. 

3. After soaking, drain any excess water, if any. Be sure there is no water left; otherwise, the vadas will turn soggy. Making Sabudana Vada: 

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the soaked and drained sabudana, mashed potatoes, coarsely ground peanuts, chopped green chilies, cumin seeds, red chili powder, turmeric powder, lemon juice, and salt. 

2. Mix everything well to form a dough-like mixture. 3. Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into small patties or vadas. 

4. Heat oil in a deep-frying pan on medium heat.

5. Carefully slide the Vada’s into the hot oil and fry until they turn golden brown and crispy. Fry them in batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding the pan. 

6. Remove the fried Vada’s and place them on paper towels to remove excess oil.

 Enjoy your crispy and delicious Sabudana Vadas!
