Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 4 large Potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups Gram flour (Besan)
  • 2 tablespoons Green chili and ginger paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
  • 8 leaves Curry leaves
  • 4 tablespoons Dry garlic chutney
  • 6 pieces Pav (Indian bread rolls)
  • 1 pinch Asafoetida (Hing)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil for deep frying

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan and add mustard seeds, curry leaves, and asafoetida until they crackle.

  2. 2

    Add the ginger-chili paste and turmeric, then mix in the mashed potatoes and salt; cook for 2 minutes and let the mixture cool.

  3. 3

    Form the potato mixture into medium-sized round balls (vadas).

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, whisk the gram flour with water, salt, and a pinch of turmeric to create a thick, smooth batter.

  5. 5

    Heat the frying oil in a deep vessel until hot.

  6. 6

    Dip each potato ball into the gram flour batter to coat evenly and carefully drop into the hot oil.

  7. 7

    Deep fry the vadas until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside, then drain on paper towels.

  8. 8

    Slice the pav buns halfway, spread garlic chutney inside, place a hot vada in the center, and press down gently to serve.
