Goru Chikkudu Kaya Snacks ~ Gawar Beans Vada!

Ok now that you know of one deep fried love with bitter gourd, I can as well talk about Goru chikkudu kaya or as we call it, Mattikaya. This wonderful way of making a vada, was an inspiration that Athamma had after seeing it somewhere. When I got back home, she was excited about this dish and was telling me for a while. Well she spent quite a lot of time talking about this, that I finally decided its time to make it. It was nice knowing that Peddu liked this, so I was glad he got to eat some veggies this way.

So I thought a snack alternating with soups will be a great thing, Every night when I have my soup, Konda will want to taste that and she says its so yummy mummy! I will tell her she can eat her dinner instead of trying to drink only soup and not skip her dinner. She gets very curious seeing the colour, then slowly sipping it, she says wow.Well that makes it all the more nice. And these vadas, we made using her toy mold that she had. We saved it for using it for shapes. So she was excited that these came out in good shape.
