Sabudana Vada - Not Fried | Sago Balls and Banana nuts Lassi

During Navratri, people fast or eat farali food. But for me when you say farali food, its always (mostly )  fry food and when you are eating less or doing fast for some reason, why to eat greasy food. This is perfect to eat during fast. But when you are fasting eating frying food is not good on empty stomach in my opinion. So I wanted to make this healthy way but still taking care of fasting rules. This vada are not fried so you don't need to add any flours or yogurt to make soft. It is as soft as it is and still delicious. As you all know my love for my paniyaram pan, I wanted to make this in it and I got perfect opportunity to make this during fast. So here it is, everyone's favorite sabudana vada but in healthy way. To pair it up I made Banana walnut lassi and it was just too good.


Ingredients :

1/2 cup sabudana before soaking
2 potatoes
2 tsp. crushed ginger and green chilies mix
1 tsp. lime juice
1 tsp. roasted jeera (cumin) powder
3 tbsp. crushed peanuts
1 tsp. cinnamon powder
1 tsp. clove powder
salt as per taste
1 - 2 tsp. oil

Method:

Soak sabudana in plenty of water for 2-3 hours. Check the quality of your sabudana and soak it more if needed. Mine was done in 2 hours.
Boil the potatoes in pressure cooker or microwave.
After soaking sabudana, washed them thoroughly and drain it very well.
Take a bowl. Add sabudana, mashed potatoes, ginger, chili, peanuts, lime juice, salt and both powder.

Heat the paniyaram pan. Add drop of oil in it.
Make small rounds of mixture and put it in pan.

Cook it from all the side till its become red. You can make patties and deep fry it or shallow fry it too. Have to try about baking , don't know about that, if anyone try baking it let me know please.
Make all the balls and take it out on paper towel. Its sago, no matter how little oil you put, it will leave oil.
Serve at room temperature with green chutney or Maggie hot sauce or ketchup.




For Lassi :

Mix one banana, 1 cup yogurt, 2 tbsp honey, nuts as per your choice. Mix it in grinder and thick delicious lassi is ready.
