Dahi vada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dahi vada (also known as thayir vada) is an Indian fast food, or chaat, prepared by soaking vadas in thick yogurt (dahi).
The hot deep fried vadas are first put in water and then transferred to thick beaten yogurt. For best results the vadas have to soak for at least a couple of hours before serving. To add more flavor it can be topped with coriander or mint leaves, chili powder, crushed black pepper, chaat masala, cumin, shredded coconut, green chilis or boondi. At some places in India, especially in Maharashtra and Gujarat, a sweet taste to the dahi seems to be preferred in addition to the garnishing mentioned above.
Sambhar vadas and Rasam vadas are also popular snacks in southern India.
