Faradi Sabudana Vada (Sago)

                                             My favorite and yummy "sabudana na vada".
                                              It is one of gujarati's most favorite faradi dish
                                              especially when they are fasting.   It's very
                                              easy to make and it's delicious.  I learned from
                                              my sister-in-law. She is a very good cook.

Ingredients : 

1 cup sabudana (sago)

1 cup plain yogurt (curd)

1/2 cup peanuts coarsely chopped

1/2 cup boiled and mashed potatoes

1 tsp grated ginger (adrak)

1 to 2 green chillies, grated

1 tsp cumin (jira)

salt to taste

Directions :

1. Wash the sabudana. Drain and put yogurt on top and keep aside for about 5 hours.

2. Mix the sabudana along with all other ingredients and knead lightly to form a soft dough.

3. Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round and flatten slightly.

4. Deep-fry the vadas in hot oil until they are golden brown in color and drain on absorbent paper.
