Sabudana Vada recipe
Sabudana Vada recipe is easy to make fasting food at home. The main ingredient used is sago or sabudana which is very healthy and low-calorie.
During any religious festival, we often spend so much time deciding what to have after fasting. This is because after hours of empty stomach you cannot just eat anything too heavy or high calorie. That might lead to severe acidity and illness.
On the other hand, we have to consider a quick and easy recipe that should be served with less effort. After thinking all of these I suddenly remember my grandmother’s famous vrat recipe of Crispy sabudana vada. It is made of sago, a healthy lentil that is nutritious and light on the stomach after fasting.
