Sabudana Vada in Appe Pan/Healthy Sabudana Vada Recipe

Sabudana vadas are famous Indian fritters made from sago, potatoes, groundnuts and chillies. Generally they are deep fried. But this recipe is a healthier version and is made in Appe/Aebleskiver pan. I used a non stick Aebleskiver pan.

They taste so good that you won’t even realize that they are not fried.

This Appe pan has been a blessing. Most of the deep fried items can be made in this. Just add a few drops of oil and your fritters or any other dish is ready.

As a child I remember eating Sabudana Vadas in famous Prakash Hotel in Shivaji Park, Mumbai. They were always deep fried. I never imagined that I can make a similar tasting vadas and that too without frying.

The ingredients for these vadas are same as for the fried ones. Only the technique of cooking is different. Some days back i had made roasted gulab jamun and they also turned out yum.

Here is a good article about how to choose an Appe/Aebleskiver pan. I bought mine from Amazon.
