Ari Vada Recipe / Deep Fried Savory Rice flour Fritters



Mom used to make this simple snack for us while we were kids… She used to make Savory Orotti (Flat Rice Bread) too with the same recipe. While Ari Vada needs deep-frying, Orotti is made on a skillet.  You have to adjust the amount of water according to the rice flour you use. Also if you are making this vada for small kids reduce green chillies or completely omit it. We used to have this with ketchup…..You can even serve with Coconut Chutney.
