Parippu Vada – Lentil / Dal Fritters

Parippu Vada – Lentil / Dal Fritters

If you ask me what my favourite Kerala tea-time snack is. I will instantly say Parippu vada! Not that I don’t like popular choices like Pazham Pori and Uzhunu Vada. Parippu vada is just my favourite. I gravitate towards it in a tea snack spread! Lol. The crunch, the texture, the scent of freshly fried Parippu vadas in coconut oil..

So you can imagine, I have tried to make these at home a lot, before coming to my favourite recipe. I experimented with various dals, and fresh ingredients as well as spices.  This is my favourite!
