Vada. I couldnt get the normal grinder to run without adding water. And then I had to add urad flour to make it pliable. In the end the vadas were too hard in dahi but fine when microwaved with sambar. You know what else tastes good with sambar. Quinoa.
Later my friends shared some vadas they made. Antithesis to ours. Their recipe - store bought mix. I should try that next time.
And husband and other sources say baking soda would have helped with our recipe.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard. all purpose flour plays the corn starch role of thickening the custard. I used Parle G instead of vanilla wafers.

Streit's Potato Pancake Mix

In went some Indian spices - Cumin, Dhanajiru powder, pepper and salt. Had it with green mirchi chutney and dahi. Tasted like vada. Vegeterian Kishke can be made with carrots and celery added to the potato pancake mix.
