Vada, or medu vada, is the perfect dish to add to your plate when you’re looking to start your morning on an indulgent note. These are spiced lentil fritters, often served as a side with idli, dosa, uttapam, or other South Indian breakfast items. It’s also a popular addition to school lunches. Shaped like doughnuts but savory in nature, these fried snacks are a favourite across India.
