There are so many nutritious seasonal veggies out there, for instance- carrot, fenugreek (methi), radish, spinach and more. All these veggies and leafy greens are used to prepare numerous delicacies that can be perfect to accompany with a steaming cup of tea in this nippy weather; for instance- palak ke pakore, palak patta chaat, methi mathri, muthia and more. Adding to the list of these delectable snacks, here we bring you a recipe of Palak Vada.
As the name suggests, this vada recipe is made with addition of palak (spinach) and the goodness of dry fenugreek leaves, piquant flavours of green chillies and ginger along with spices like cumin seeds, red chilli powder, dry mango powder and more. You would need some oil to fry it too. Pair these winter special vadas with ketchup, mint or tamarind chutney and, of course, a steaming cup of chai.
