Aval Vadai | Poha Vada
Ingredients
- oil to deep fry
To mix:
- 1 heaped cup aval(thin poha)
- 2 tablespoon rice flour
- 1 tablespoon curd
- 1/3 cup onion finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon jeera
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger finely chopped

- 1 tablespoon coriander leaves finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon curry leaves finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon red chilli powder

- water as needed
Instructions
- Rinse poha well, drain water completely. By now it should have turned soft as I used thin poha. If you use thick poha then soak for few mins then proceed for it to soften. To a mixing bowl add all the ingredients listed under 'to mix'.
- Mix this well first. Add little water if the mixture is too dry. The mixture should be moist and not too dry. Now make a small lemon sized ball.
- Flatten it slightly. Repeat to finish.
- Heat oil add the vadais in batches. Keep flame in medium flame, turn over and fry until golden brown. Repeat to finish. Enjoy Aval Vada!

Notes
- Flame should be in medium while frying else it may drink more oil.
- Also the mixture should be only slightly moist for it to hold together.
- It should not too tight else it may crumble while frying.
- I used thin poha so just while rinsing itself it became soft.
- If you use thick poha you need to soak for few mins.
