STEP BY STEP
Vazhapoo Vadai is a deep-fried snack that is made from Banana flowers, chana dal, and spices. Cleaning the banana flowers requires a lot of time and patience, but the taste and texture of the deep-fried vadai make the hard work worth it.
Although this is a deep-fried snack, the presence of banana flowers makes this snack low in calories, highly fibrous, and nutritious.
This crispy, crunchy and delicious can be a tea time snack as well as a side dish in main meals.
