About Vada
Vada is a popular deep-fried snack originating from South Indian cuisine, often enjoyed as part of a breakfast or tea-time meal. Typically made from fermented urad dal (black gram) batter, Vada is known for its crispy exterior and fluffy, soft interior. This savory delight is often circular in shape, with a distinctive hole in the center. Rich in protein and dietary fiber from the urad dal, Vada can be considered moderately nutritious when consumed in moderation. It may provide energy and promote satiety, but its health benefits can be offset by the frying process, which increases its calorie and fat content. Often paired with coconut chutney and sambar, Vada is a flavorful addition to a balanced diet but is best enjoyed occasionally rather than as a staple. Making Vada with less oil or baking it can be healthier options for mindful consumption.
