Hi
ReplyDeleteI keep trying sago vadas very often.I shall try
this too. In south indian recipe curd is used.
soaking sago in curd gives different taste and
also to avoid the vada bursting--it is advised
to grind the soaked sago in pulse mode in mixie
and then follow the steps to make vada.
Even raw potatoes can be used by scraping it
and adding--thanks to vah-re-vah chef for that.
