Method
Make the vadas
-To make the vadas, in a pan put in the oil and once the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds. When the seeds start to pop, put in the rest of the ingredients, the curry leaves, ginger-green chili paste, asafoeida powder and the turmeric powder.
-Put in the mashed potatoes, chopped coriander, salt and mix well. Cook for a couple of minutes more, turn off the heat and stir in the juice of a lime. Allow the potato mixture to cool down. Make the batter
-Combine all the ingredients for the batter together in a bowl and mix until the batter is smooth, thick and there are no lumps. Make the vada:
-Divide the potato mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into round balls. You can make larger vadas, depending on the size you want.
-Dip each ball in the batter, coating the vadas with the batter on all sides. Place the vadas in a hot appa chetty/aebleskiver pan or a hot griddle smeared with oil.
-Cover and cook on a slow flame for 3 to 4 minutes, using a little oil to smear the sides of the pan.
-Turn the vadas upside down, cover again and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes or till they turn golden brown in colour.
How to assemble:
-Serve hot vadas with chutney of your choice. To make vada pav, smear the pav with a chutney of your choice, place a vada between two pavs, top with a fried green chili and enjoy.
Note: Try and use whole wheat pav to make vada pav. If you don’t have an aebleskiver pan, just use a frying pan!
You can serve the vadas without the pav with red and green chutney.
