One vada is a savory, deep-fried snack popular in South Indian cuisine, typically made from a batter of urad dal (black gram lentils), spices, and aromatics like curry leaves, green chilies, and black pepper. Known for its crispy golden exterior and soft, fluffy inside, vada is a staple in traditional meals, often paired with chutney or sambar. Rich in protein due to the lentils, vada provides energy and supports muscle health. However, it is deep-fried, making it higher in calories and less suitable for those watching fat intake or aiming for heart-healthy options. Moderation is key when enjoying this flavorful treat, as it can be a delicious addition to a balanced diet with mindful portion control.
