Mom made this for brunch and I happily captured the pics. We had medu vada with the sambar and coconut chutney. Medhu Vadai is one of the easiest snacks to make. the word medu in the medu vada, literally means soft in kannada language. basically this word is attached to this dish, to describe softness yet the crispiness it has. perhaps the udupi restaurants famous all over india had a great contribution in popularising and giving this adjective to vada recipe. Ulundu vadai is hubby favorite but I like paruppu vadai than this one.
