Sabudana Wada-Real Deal--Deep Fried Sago Fritters!!!!
 Hello sweeties, as you all know there are a few of my favorite things, one is deep fried treats and another is my Bhatukli(Traditional Indian kitchen set).


Although this is not the one I grew up playing, this is close to what I had sans the stand. My mom gifted the utensils to munchkin since he loves to help cook, prep veggies, clean after the job. The stand to display was a recent purchase. You cannot beat the cuteness of such treats.

Coming back to the recipe of the day, its sabudana wadas. They are good if your are fasting or feasting. I and my boys love sabudana wadas anytime of the day or night. It has been cold and rainy April in NJ last couple of days. Such weather calls for something spicy and something fried.

You will need;
1 Cup Soaked Sago/Sabudana--Soak the sago in water for 10 mins and drain all water out and keep covered for good 5-6 hours.
1 small boiled potato mashed
2 tbspn roasted peanut powder
1 tbspn Cayenne powder 
1 tspn cumin powder
1 tspn Cumin seeds
1 tbspn Chopped Cilantro
1 tsp sugar
Salt to taste.
Water if needed to knead into  a pliable dough 
2 cups oil for frying
In a bowl combine all the ingredients and mix well. Use little water if needed to bind it into a ball. Make small balls and flatten them into discs. Keep aside after all such discs are ready.

In a wok, heat the oil, smoke it once and reduce heat to medium. Deep fry each disc till its golden brown. Enjoy these hot wadas with yogurt chutney and a spicy peanut crush.
