Sabudana Vada

Sabudana Vada & Sabudana Khichdi are two recipes that I always make during my fasting days in Navratri. Easy to prepare and you can have them with either yogurt or homemade vrat green chutney .Sabudana Kheer is the third one made with sabudana /tapioca which I never miss to prepare.

Its a Traditional Recipe
Navratri Fasting, Sabudana Vada

Sabudana Vada with fasting chutney

Navratri comes twice a year, once in March and then in September-October every year. During these Navratri Fasting, any grain flours are not consumed. Only a fruit based diet is followed which includes buckwheat flour, water chestnut flour, amaranth/rajgiri flour, samak rice flour / samak rice. Only a few vegetables are consumed like potato, tomatoes, pumpkin, Arbi with a no onion no garlic meal prepared once or twice a day as per preference.

 

I like to experiment and try and have new dishes prepared with these few flours and vegetable to not get bored of the flavors, but then a few traditional recipes you just cannot miss.One such recipe is Sabudana Vada. Tapioca / Sabudana being a very commonly used ingredient and easy to prepare had its special place in our traditional recipes .Originally it came from Maharashtra, where people make it not only during fasting days, but also as a everyday snack.

  6. Fry them evenly on both sides ,turning them as needed.
  7. Serve hot with vrat green chutney or have them with cold yogurt

      I have not posted the green chutney recipe as of now. But you can just make it in the grinder with: coriander leaves, mint leaves, yogurt, ginger, green chili, roasted peanuts, black salt/rock salt, black pepper(optional),lemon juice.I can mail you the full recipe if you with with measurements.

      Thanks Elaine. These are usually made in India during Fasting Days or Navratri Fasting as we call in India. During this time, we only take a fruit based/gluten free diet. So potato, tapioca, amaranth flour/ buckwheat flour, pumpkin are few ingredients we cook our meals with. Hope you like it.

    These look delicious, and I appreciate that they are grain-free too! I think that they would make a wonderful accompaniment to a stew.

    I have not made sabudana wada in years! I so miss authentic Indian food when I see them like this. My neighbor use to make the best ones and we’d have them for breakfast. I must try this recipe soon. Thanks

      Veena, although i too make them mostly during the Navratri Fasting days, but these are a very healthy and easy to make snack. My kids love them. Since Tapioca is available all year, this is a frequent Tiffin box filler for my son.

    I’ve never heard of these before, but I’m sold! Between the filling and being fried, I feel like these would be the perfect side to a thick, hearty stew. Thanks for sharing!

      Am glad you like Leslie. Yes they can pair with a stew just perfectly. Instead of deep frying you can also air fry or pan roast/fry them with minimal oil.Hope you try them soon

    I like to try new recipes, especially from different cultures! Shame on me, the only Indian foods I ever tried were traditional Indian restorants favorites, here in US 🙂
