Yield: 15 medium pieces
Time: 30 minutes
Deep Fried Vadi
Steamed Vadi
Ingredients:1 cup finely chopped cabbage
2 cup finely chopped Spinach leaves
1 cup besan (Chickpea flour)
1 tsp green chili paste
1 tsp garlic paste
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
Pinch of turmeric powder
Pinch of hing (Asafoetida)
Salt to taste
Method:
1) First, mix chopped cabbage, chopped spinach, chill paste, garlic paste, cilantro, hing, turmeric and salt. Mix nicely.
2) Sprinkle little water (around 2 to 3 tbsp) on the mixture. Then add chickpea flour. Mix nicely and make a gooey mixture.
3) Grease the plates of Dhokla stand with few drops of oil. Spread the above mixture evenly and make 1 to 1.5 cm thick layer. Do not make very thick layer.
4) Steam cook for 15 minutes. Cut into 2 inch squares or any shapes you like.
Serve hot with green chutney or tomato ketchup. This snack is almost oil-free.
However, it can be more delicious if deep-fried or shallow-fried.
Tips:
1) If you don't have Dhokla stand You can use pressure cooker to steam cook the mixture. Put some water at the bottom of the pressure cooker. Spread the mixture in steel container (which comes with the pressure cooker). Place it inside the cooker, remove the weight and steam cook for 15 minutes.
2) If you don't concern about the shape, use Idli stand.
