About Onion vada

Onion Vada, also known as Ulli Vada, is a popular South Indian snack known for its crispy texture and bold flavors. Originating from Indian cuisine, this fritter is crafted by mixing sliced onions with chickpea flour, rice flour, green chilies, curry leaves, and a blend of spices. The mixture is shaped into small patties and deep-fried until golden brown. While Onion Vada is loved for its crunch and savory taste, it is typically high in calories and fats due to the frying process. Onions, its main ingredient, are rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, supporting immune health, while chickpea flour adds protein and fiber. However, moderation is advised as frequent consumption may contribute to an increased intake of saturated fats. Onion Vada is best enjoyed as an occasional treat accompanied by chutneys or tea.
