Medu Vada, also called 'Vada' or 'Uzhunnu Vada', is a popular South Indian fried fritter made from soaked and ground urad dal (black lentil). The batter is seasoned with black pepper, curry leaves, ginger, and green chillies before being shaped into rings and fried to a perfect golden-brown. The result is a crispy shell that gives way to a soft, airy interior.
At Udupi Dosa in London, Ontario, our Medu Vada is made fresh to order, ensuring the best possible texture and flavour. We serve them alongside our slow-cooked sambar and freshly prepared coconut chutney, making each plate a delightful combination of textures and tastes. Whether enjoyed as a snack, starter, or part of an idli-vada combo, our Medu Vada is always a crowd-pleaser.
