KABULI CHANA VADA I WHITE CHICKPEAS FRITTERS I VELLAI SUNDAL VADAI

Hi friends, last week I was quite busy with my household works and writing works. But here, start gear to routine post from now on... Actually last week I missed blogging and even I didn't cook recipes for blog and no photography too, yet I enjoyed in other way of doing my subject works after long time, once again I experienced the tensions, midnight studies, no foods, no hungry and lots and lots of memories during my college periods... J Lovely and cherish moments.

Coming to the recipe, which is I tried suddenly for Karthigai Deepam on last Sunday and it was came out very well. It has slight sweetness from the Kabuli chana and it was tasted really very good with spiciness. I add extra chillies and pepper to subside the extra sweetness. I love the vada very much...
