Medu Vada Sandwich is an inventive combination of two popular dishes, the south Indian medu vada and the globally loved Sandwich. This dish also has a touch of Chinese. However, instead of bread this recipe uses medu vada (made from black gram dal) as a bun. Sandwiched between the two medu vada buns is a spicy stuffing of noodles cooked in Schezwan chutney.
This delicious one-of-a-kind Indian, Chinese, Global Medu Vada Sandwich is a fascinating and enticing dish.
