Welcome to the channel, today we will make crispy vada from leftover idli batter.

Add 2 tablespoons of rice flour to the leftover idli batter.

Add 2 tablespoons of semolina to the batter for extra crispiness.

Mix the ingredients well and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the semolina to swell.

After resting, add salt to taste, finely chopped green chilies, coriander leaves, and grated ginger to the mixture.

Mix everything thoroughly for about 2-3 minutes.

Optionally, add a little baking soda to make the vadas soft inside and crispy outside.

Heat oil in a pan for frying.

Wet your hands, take a portion of the batter, shape it into a donut or disc, and carefully drop it into the hot oil.

Fry until golden brown, flipping when the bottom is browned.

Remove the vadas from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Serve hot with sambar or chutney.
