Aval Vadai (Poha Vada)

Tried this from Edible Garden and it turned out crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I really liked it. Thanks for the recipe :)

Ingredients:
Aval/Poha/Rice flakes - 1 cup
Gram flour - 1-2 tbsp
Rice flour - 1-2 tbsp
Salt
Onion chopped - 1/2 cup
Green chilli chopped  - 1
Hing - a pinch
Coriander leaves chopped- 1 tbsp
Curry leaves - a few
Jeera - 1/2 tsp
Grated Ginger/Garlic - 1 tsp
Oil - To deep fry

Method:
Wash poha and rinse. Set aside for 10 minutes till it turns soft.
Add rest of the ingredients and form a dough. Add little water if necessary (I added less than 1/4 cup of water).
If the mixture becomes soggy, add some more rice flour/gram flour.
Shape them into 1/4 inch thick discs.
Deep fry till golden brown.
Serve hot with ketchup!

Mango Lassi

Happy Ugadi to everyone! Back home in India grandma would make Ugadi Pachhadi. This pachchadi is made with Neem flowers, jaggery, green chillies, salt, tamarind juice, raw mango, i.e. with six tastes which signifies that life consists of six different experiences and should be taken with equal acceptance. I miss the Bevu-Bella (Neem-jaggery) pachadis.
