SABUDANA VADA/SAGGUBEEYAM VADALU IN AIR FRYER

This dish is well known in Maharashtra, India especially made during the times of Vrath or Puja(auspicious events)😊.

I have made a few tweaks to it to match my palette!!!

You can do the same and add any extra ingredients or minus the ones I have used😃.

So...why wait, let us dive into the recipe🍮.


Final Dish



Cooking Time: 8 hours for soaking the sabudana overnight and 1 hour for the final dish!!!



All the ingredients added to a bowl

Form a dough

Patties/cutlets from the dough

                                         

INGREDIENTS:


1. Sabudana(Saggubeeyam/Sago/Tapioca Pearls)- 1/2 cup soaked overnight

2. One medium sized potato(boiled and peeled)

3. Salt to taste

4. Turmeric powder- 1/4th tsp

5. Garam Masala- 1 tsp

6. Ginger Garlic paste-1/2 tbsp

7. Finely chopped Green Chilies- 2 or as per spice level preference

8. Crushed Peanuts- 3 tbsp

9. Oil- 1/2 tsp

10. Rice Flour- 1 tbsp

 

METHOD:

  • Mash the boiled potato in a mixing bowl.
  • Add all the above ingredients except the crushed peanuts, rice flour and the sabudana.
  • Mix well, preferably with your hand(washed 😛).
  • Fold in the Sabudana and rice flour(for binding-to hold the vadas in shape) and the peanuts.
  • Mix into a nice dough like consistency without adding any water.
  • Make patties as shown in the picture.
  • Refrigerate them for a minimum of 15 mins before air frying them (OR) refrigerate until you are ready to air fry them.
  • Brush the air fryer with some oil to prevent the patties from sticking and preheat the air fryer at 350 F(180°C) for 10 mins.
  • Place the patties in the air fryer and fry for about 15 mins, flipping them every 5 mins.
  • Once they are golden brown, they are ready to serve with ketchup, coconut or any other chutney.

 

NOTE:

  1. The more you refrigerate, the more crispy they are on the outside.
  2. Add more rice flour depending on the quantity of sabudana and as per the need to bind the mixture.

 

The quantities mentioned above serves 2 people.
