About Aluwadi

Aluwadi, a savory rolled snack originating from Indian cuisine, is a traditional delicacy often enjoyed in western regions like Maharashtra and Gujarat. Made from colocasia leaves (arbi ke patte) coated with a spiced gram flour batter, the mixture typically includes ingredients like tamarind, jaggery, chili powder, and turmeric, creating a balance of tangy and sweet flavors. The rolls are steamed, sliced, and then shallow-fried for added crispiness. Colocasia leaves are a good source of dietary fiber, iron, and vitamins C and A, offering digestive and immune support. However, due to frying and added jaggery, moderation is key as it can be calorie-dense. Aluwadi is a nutrient-rich yet indulgent snack that combines plant-based goodness with aromatic spices, appealing to those seeking energizing small bites with traditional flair.
