Sounds too good to be true - right? But that’s all it takes, and the vadais taste great. They even taste good when they are cold.
Then as my husband and I were slowly making our way through all the food in the fridge, I came upon this batter and decided to try something new. I added rice flour, grated carrots, and some ginger to it and made vadas. They were perfect! Because I had added rice flour, the dough was thick and really easy to shape into vadas. And the best part, they tasted great even when they were cold!
I am impressed with how good they taste and how simple they are to make.
Try these for your Deepavali or Thanksgiving party. I’m sure they will be a hit.
Navrathri went by in a blur this year. I had a few families for dinner on Friday, and had my big party on Saturday. I saved Sunday to visit a few other golus. But since a few people could not make it on Friday or Saturday, they came home on Monday. I had school the whole day, and a dear friend had called a few of us to her place on Monday as well. So I rushed back home, quickly prepped for my guests, changed, went to my friend's place, and rushed back to receive my guests. I made Sooji Kuzhi Paniyaram, along with mudi masala, dhokla, peanut chaat, and ras malai.
As usual I had overestimated my quantities and had some leftover sooji batter, after making the kuzhi paniyarams. I put this in the fridge along with all the other leftovers from my big party and forgot about it for a few days.

Last night, my husband was meeting a few of his buddies to discuss an upcoming trip and needed to take something for a potluck. Since it has been a long week, with two days of parent teacher conferences running till 8:00 p.m, I wanted to make something that was quick and easy. I decided to make these for him to take.
