Bataka Vada

This is a very delicious dish. Mumbai is known for Vadapav. But at my home if our parent's guests (senior citizens come)we make this on their demand-Batakavada and green chutney. This is a very special dish and sometimes part of Sunday lunch also.

Ingredients:

potato boiled and grated 500gm

ginger-chilli-garlic paste-fresh 2 teaspoon(can take more if you like spicy)

finely chopped dhania powder 1 teaspoon

salt to taste

corn flour-4-5 teaspoon for binding the stuffing

For batter:

Besan 1 cup to make batter

dhania powder 1 teaspoon

turmeric powder 1 teaspoon

chilli powder1 teaspoon

oil for frying

Method:

Wash, boil, peel, and grate potato. Add salt, ginger-garlic-chilli paste, coriander and mix well. Make small balls and roll them in cornflour for proper binding. Keep aside.

Take besan, add chili powder, dhania powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Add water to make a batter that can coat the potato ball. Add fruit salt just before adding potato balls and mix well in 1 direction.

Heat oil in the pan. Once the oil is heated, dip balls in besan batter, coating it all around and put in the frying pan. Fry till it becomes golden yellow. Put on a paper towel to absorb extra oil. Sprinkle chat masala. Serve with green chutney. Serve it hot.

This bataka vada can also be used for vada pav. Pav(bread) with vada pav dry chutney and vada and your vada pav is ready.
