Sabudana Vada

Sabudana vada ( sago vada) is a deep fried snack made with tapioca pearls and mashed potatoes. Its a popular traditional snack from Maharashtra, India. Usually served with Green chutney and hot tea. Well it tastes as good with tomato ketchup too. There are many variations in the preparation of these vadas. Few add only green chilly, cumin, salt and some add other ingredients.
