Sabudana Vada
Sabudana Vada is a crispy and delicious snack that goes perfect with a nice hot cup of tea!
As weird as it sounds, this is a ‘lucky’ snack my mother used to prepare. Hear me out before you laugh at me…
I come from a superstitious family. My mother prepared Sabudana vada for the first time on the evening of a Cricket World Cup Finals, and India won. Ever since that an internal family tradition was set, Sabudana Vada to be prepared for an important day! My ACCA exam results day, the day before the license test… Sabudana Vada was prepared. Even if I may not believe, having Sabudana Vada doesn’t require a reason!
