    Notes

    •  The cooking time may depend on the size of vada you make.
    •  Mine was very small bite sized vada’s as my little one prefers it this way. So  Adjust the shape as per your preference.
    •  Frying the vada in coconut oil makes it more delicious.
    •  Add in few curry leaves and Red Chilli in the oil while frying it brings in a   nice flavour.
