About Masal vada
Masal Vada, a popular South Indian snack, is a savory fritter made from chana dal (split Bengal gram) and spices. This crispy treat is seasoned with ingredients like chopped onions, curry leaves, green chilies, and ginger, which add layers of flavor and a fragrant aroma. Often enjoyed with coconut chutney or as an accompaniment to tea, Masal Vada is a staple in Indian cuisine, particularly during festive occasions or as a street food favorite. Rich in plant-based protein and fiber from chana dal, Masal Vada promotes satiety and supports digestion. However, since it is traditionally deep-fried, it can be calorie-dense and high in fat, making moderation key for those watching their calorie intake. For a healthier twist, Masal Vada can also be baked or air-fried while retaining its classic taste and crunch.
