Sabudana Vada (Sago Seed Patties)

Children are having their summer holidays these days. It's a big challenge to keep them occupied. If there is nothing to do, they feel hungry!!
   My parents being here this summer, children are getting spoilt by my mother. They know very well that if mum says 'No' to something, grandma is always there to fulfil their demands!!
  It was one of the Hindu festivals the other day, so the plan was made the make Sabudana Vadas.Normally I rarely  make deep fried food,so this was a special treat for all of us and we all made the most of the opportunity.I am sharing the same recipe with you all.

Ingredients and recipe:
Sabudana(Sago Seeds) 1cup
Potatoes 2
Roasted peanut powder 1/2 cup
2 green chillies and 1 tsp Cumin seeds ground to a paste
Salt,sugar,lime juice as per taste
Oil for deep frying

1)Soak  the sago  seeds 6-7 hours before making the Vadas. For soaking them, you need just a little bit of water in it. Wash them with water and take out all but just a little bit of water, cover and leave it for 6-7 hours.
2)Boil and mash the potatoes.
3)Take the sago seeds and add mashed potatoes,roasted peanut powder,salt,sugar,paste of green chillies and cumin seeds and lime juice and knead into a dough. If the mixture is too dry, then add just a little bit of water.
4)Now take a lime size portion of this dough and flatten it in between your palms to make a patty and make a hole in the centre.
5)Make all the Vadas and then deep fry in the hot oil till they turn golden brown.
6)Serve the Vadas piping hot with plain yogurt or a dip made of yogurt, green chillies and roasted peanut powder.
    If you are spoiling your family members by making the hot Vadas for them, make sure to save some dough for you, because they will disappear in a jiffy ;)
