Non-fried sabudana wadas

All fried foods taste yummy, don’t they? But, what about our health? Nowadays, we had almost given up on fried foods and trust me, giving up on these tasty delicacies was so difficult. But, we noticed that once we stopped eating wadas, sev, farsans and all the other fried foods, we stopped craving them too. Yet, I read on a facebook group about making sabudana wadas in an appe maker and thought of giving it a try. Though the group suggested using some oil, I have tried to avoid it completely using only a whiff of oil spray J

Ingredients: (for 3 people)

Sabudana 2 katoris

Ground peanuts ½ katori

1 Large baked potato (grated)

Salt as per taste

2 Chilies chopped

Cilantro chopped

Cooking Oil spray (pam/Kirkland)

Appe pan  (I have the-Norpro 3113 Cast-Aluminum Nonstick Aebleskiver Stuffed-Pancake Pan)

So, to make these wadas, you will first need to soak sabudana in water for 4 hours. Drain out the water completely after the sabudana is soft and add ground peanuts, chillies (according to taste), cilantro, salt and baked and grated potato and mix it together.

Make small balls out of the dough or the mix. The mix will be sticky because of the potato and wet sabudana. Use the appe pan to cook these wadas with just a whiff of oil spray enough to cook them. Flip them once they change color on one side and wait till they turn golden brown. Use oil spray as and when the wadas look dry. Cook them on medium heat as you want them to be cooked on the inside too. The wadas should be dry and cooked well from the inside too.
