About Dahi wada

Dahi Wada is a popular dish from Indian cuisine, renowned for its harmonious combination of flavors and textures. It consists of soft lentil dumplings (wadas) made from urad dal, which are soaked in water to retain their spongy texture and then immersed in seasoned yogurt (dahi). Typically garnished with tangy tamarind chutney, spicy mint chutney, and sprinkled with roasted cumin powder, chili powder, and fresh coriander, it offers a delightful mix of sweet, sour, and spicy notes. Packed with probiotic-rich yogurt, Dahi Wada supports digestion and gut health, while the lentils provide protein and dietary fiber. However, it can be calorie-dense when fried and topped with sugary chutneys, making portion control essential for those mindful of their diet. Often served as a festive treat or street food, Dahi Wada balances indulgence with some notable nutritional benefits.
