Bread Medu Vada

 

Ingredients:-

5 bread slices

1/4 cup rava

1/2 cup rice flour

3/4 cup curd/yogurt

1/2 onion, finely chopped

1 tsp ginger, crushed

1 green chilli, finely chopped

A few curry leaves, finely chopped

2 tbsp coriander leaves, finely chopped

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp salt

Oil for frying

Method:-

1. Firstly, in a grinder break the bread slices and grind them till you get fine breadcrumbs. Take the breadcrumbs out in a large mixing bowl. 

2. Now, add rava, rice flour and curd/yogurt. Further add finely chopped onion, crushed ginger, finely chopped green chilli, chopped curry leaves, coriander leaves, cumin and salt. Squeeze and mix them very well till you get a soft dough. 

3. You can add a tsp of curd if the mixture is too dry and if it's sticky, you can add a tbsp of breadcrumbs. 

4. Next, grease your hand with oil and pinch a ball sized mixture. Flatten the ball slightly and make a hole in the center. Prepare all the bread medu vada's in the same way. 

5. Further deep fry the vada in hot oil on medium flame. Do not overcrowd the kadai while frying and try to have a gap between each vada. Stir occasionally until the vada turns golden and crisp. Drain them off in a kitchen towel to remove excess oil. 

6. Finally, serve hot and crispy bread medu vada with tomato ketchup or chutney.
