STEP BY STEP
Maddur Vada is sold on the railway platform of Maddur, a railway station situated on the Bangalore and Mysore rail route. The vadas are made from semolina, maida and rice flour to which onions, curry leaves, green chillies and some dry spices are added. Onions give it a crunch, and the spices make it flavourful.
This crunchy and savoury deep-fried snack, when served with coconut chutney, is an absolute treat.
