    Sabudana Vada

    Sabudana Vada is a very popular snack during fasting . Soaked Sabudana is mixed with boiled potatoes , roasted peanuts, spices and baked or deep fried to make this tasty fasting snack.

    Sabudana /tapioca is loaded with carbohydrates hence it energises you within few minutes,so is the reason for using Sabudana during fasting.Sabudana/Pearl Sago/Tapioca Pearls are made from starch extracted from tapioca roots and then processed to give pearl like structure.

    Sabudana contains very large quantity of starch with low amounts of vitamins, minerals, calcium,iron and fiber . However lack of these nutrients are made up by adding veggies,peanuts ,milk and ghee to create myriad of lip smacking dishes, one of it is Sabudana Khichdi  .

    I have tasted authentic Sabudana Vada in many of my Maharastrian friend's house and also in many food joints in Pune, though it tastes extremely good but I felt it drinks more oil while frying. So I tried baking these pearls and believe me , it turned out to be perfect Sabudana Vada without compromising in taste and with an added advantage of using minimal oil.I even tried shallow frying the vadas....,it came out well.

    But as always I liked baked one much better than shallow frying, though there was no much change in the taste . I felt little oiliness in shallow fried vadas as compared with baked ones. As I loved baked vadas, I'm posting the recipe of Baked Sabudana Vada. If you prefer shallow fry or deep fry you can go ahead with it instead of baking.

    Sabudana Vada are served with plain curds or sweet curds.
