    Whenever we dine out at Arya Bhavan or Gowri Shankar restaurant which are the best vegetarian hotels here in my opinion, I used to order curd vadai as a starter or like soups which we order in other hotels. Those guys make the amazing vadai and curd vadai. 

    The curd is thick, homemade and unsour. That makes it more tasty and appetizing. I always wanted to make it at home for so many days and yesterday was the day and i made it. It tasted exactly like that one. I hope you will try this out and let me know how it turned out for you.

      Wow!! Its taste good!! my mummy use to do this in very yummi'est way but she ll do in some different way by after deep frying the vada from the oil she ll throw the vadai to water and she ll drain nice from the water because the vadai ll become so soft den for seasoning including this things she ll add very little amount of coriander powder because it smells so good den for serving she ll add kaara bhondhi and little black salt at last!!!!wow mouth watering recipe!! I love it so so mach
