DAHI VADE

It would be very unfair if I step in for any food contest without mentioning my husband “A Superhero Of My Kiddos” and as it starts on FATHER’s DAY choice of preference straight goes to my husband , his all time favorite “Dahi Vade”,so here my first foodblog about Dahi Vade. I grown up with a strong belief that cooking can never be my cup of tea ,infact among all siblings I was the only one who hold all degrees of worst cooking like lazy ,poor, tasteless etc. but yes I must say that things are not the same ,after my marriage and having kiddos ,I won’t say I am very good at cooking but yes must say I love to try new recipes whatever my family demands and love to eat.






In my family whatever is occassion no matter, Dahi Vade is something which has to be on the top of the list.I prefer to make it by the unique recipe of none other than my mother.My mom is pro in making both varieties of it salty Dahi Vade,sweet Dahi Vade and mixture of both sweet and salty.

Here I would love to share a quick recipe of my khatte meethe Dahi vade.

  3. Dahi vada is a great dish. Whether one is eating outside in a restaurant or at home, I can never have enough of it. Restaurant dish becomes better garnished, but home cooked ones are also delicacies. Thank you for writing this post.

  4. My mom made the best dahi vade too and I follow her recipes to get them right. Amazing how we always turn to them whenever we have some cooking need or emergency, isn’t it? 🙂

  5. As I read your post, I started missing my mom. When I visited her, this summer vacation she made Dahi Vade especially for me. She makes yummilicious Dahi Vade. I liked your post for the detailed but simple steps provided.

  6. My husband also loves Dahi vade. So, I always keep white urad dal in my kitchen. Since last 7 years of my married life, I have made Dahi vade so many times that now it is just a matter of 1 hour for me. I also make stuffed Dahi vade in which I stuff dry fruits mix inside the vada. They also come very delicious with little sweet dahi.

  7. Yummm…Dahi vade. I love them.
    You know I used to think that I am far away from cooking but after coming to the other side of the world, I have explored it and later after having kids, to introduce them to Indian coking and authentic dishes, I tried many dishes. Luckily, I hardly had any flop shows.
