Ingredients

  • Ingredients for vada:
  • 1 cup mix dal batter or Moong dal batter or Chana dal batter
  • ½ cup chana dal flour or rava or poha flour.
  • 1 tsp. Chilli powder.
  • ½ tsp. Coriander cumin powder.
  • ¼ tsp. Turmeric powder.
  • ⅛ tsp. Asafoetida powder.
  • ¼ tsp. Salt.
  • 1 lit.(4 cups) Rasam.

Method

  1. In a mixing bowl mix all spices and flour with batter.
  2. Mix batter thoroughly continuously for five minutes or till you get a smooth fluffy paste with the help of a manual whisk or motorised egg beater.
  3. Once you get a smooth batter check it with a floating test. Take half a bowl of water and drop little batter in water, if that drops, float on the water surface then your batter is perfect for further work and if not then again beat for some more time and then do the same test.
  4. Heat water in a big  kadhai and once it starts boiling drop small  vada in the kadhai.
  5. At a time drop 20-25 small size vada not more than that. Boil for 5-7 minutes then take out one piece and cut it with the help of a spoon. While cutting the edges of the spoon remains clean, it means vada is properly cooked. At this time take out all vada from the water and drop in the boiling rasam vessel.
  6. The same way fry all required vada in water and drop in the rasam.
  7. Serve sizzling rasam vada with love and smile.

Life is a journey of evolving roles, each with its own beauty and wisdom. From the structured world of academia to the ever-evolving realm of homemaking, I have embraced each phase with passion and grace. When my children settled into their own lives, I found myself with a renewed sense of purpose—to document and share the wealth of knowledge I have gathered over the years.

During the lockdown, I realized that my experiences in cooking, home remedies, and life’s simple yet profound lessons could serve as a source of inspiration for others. Meticulously and with great concern for the palate, gut health, overall well-being, and the emotional gratification of savoring each preparation, I began crafting a collection of love-filled, cherished recipes, time-tested remedies, and stories woven with warmth and wisdom.

I write under the name "Rajeshree's Kitchen", where I share detailed recipes—the kind that provide exact measurements for ingredients like salt and water, which are often left to personal interpretation in most other kitchen blogs. Additionally, I include practical tips with clear reasons behind them, ensuring that every piece of advice is rooted in understanding and experience. My aim is to make cooking approachable yet precise, helping readers not just recreate dishes but truly connect with the joy of cooking.

This endeavor is my way of preserving traditions, sharing insights, and connecting with those who seek both knowledge and comfort in life's everyday moments.
