Batata Vada or Potato Wada: The easy Way

Ingredients (for 4 to 6 wadas depending on size)

• Edible oil (for deep frying of wadas) as required
• Besan (gram flour) 1 cup
• Potatoes (large, boiled, soft and peeled) 2
• Onion (chopped finely) 1
• Clove of garlic (cut to very fine pieces) 4 to 6

Method

1. Mash the peeled potatoes. Add to it the chopped onion, finely cut or mashed green chilies, finely cut coriander leaves and cut garlics. Add salt and sugar to taste. Mix this very well. (alternatively, take 1 tea spoon oil, heat it and add mustard seeds. When they start spluttering, add onion, green chilies and garlic. Fry for sometime. Add the mashed potatoes, salt, sugar, finely chopped coriander leaves and mix very well. Remove from the stove).
2. Make the balls of required size (suggested size: medium) from this potato mixture.
3. In a bowl, take besan (gram flour). Add red chili powder, turmeric powder and salt. Add water and make a paste of medium viscosity (slightly on thicker side).
4. Heat oil in a deep pan. Take a ball of potato mixture, dip it in besan paste and fry it in oil till it turns light brown in color. Take it out in a serving bowl. Do it for all the potato balls.
5. Eat the potato wadas with tomato ketchup or any other chutney of your choice.
