I am sure people who know this snack would at least drool at its name once! A deep fried snack enjoyed anytime of the day ;) Few days back I saw these crispy vades on Chitra Amma's Kitchen and Naale maadthiya ? (will u make them tomorrow?) haan! was my hubby's reaction :D . Added to this already mounted temptation a friend of mine told me that she made M.Vades during our regular harate (chat) and I was all ......J, so I went upon making them. Thanks to my friends Viji, Mayura and also Chitra Amma for their crispy maddur vade recipe. Here is how they looked like..(they were my share of vades ;) )
You need the following to make these delicious fried snack :
Onions : 1 cup (onions are chopped into small pieces) (1 cup holds 100ml water)
Green chilli paste : 1 tsp (u can add more if u need spicier vades)
Curry leaves : 5-8 (chopped)
Coriander leaves: 2 tbsp (chopped)
Maida/All purpose flour : 1 cup (1 cup holds 100ml water)
Chiroti rava/semolina: 1/2 cup
salt as required
Hot oil : 1/4 cup
Oil for deep frying
Method:
1.Mix all ingredients given above using a spoon.Caution : Do not use your hands to mix the flour at this stage as hot oil might burn your fingers.
2.Leave the mixture aside for 15 minutes. The moisture in onions will wet the flour at this stage.
3.If do not intend to deep fry at this stage do not mix the flour with water. You can mix it with water when you want to deep fry. You can also mix partial flour with water and leave the other part. This small tip helps prevent the dough becoming soggy. This is an important step.
4.Heat oil over low flame. When oil is warm start with the next step.
5.If you wish to deep fry vades, sprinkle water over the flour and mix to make dough. The dough here at this stage resembles soft chapathi dough.
6. Pull a small lemon sized dough and pat it on a greased non sticky paper or laminated paper (food wrapping paper in Singapore can be used) to make a nice circle.
7. Transfer these to your fingers (hold it on 4 fingers) and slide them over to hot oil. Be careful.
8. Fry them till they are red and crisp. Drain them on a kitchen towel. Enjoy hot hot vades with coffee or tea.
9. I made masala chai/tea with hot hot vades. If you wish to learn more about Masala Chai you can visit this page : Cooking Station-Masala Tea

I Love maddur vade. I didnt know its so easy to make. Thanks for sharing. I'll it out sometime.
ahaaa..Maddur vade. I had the fortune of tasting these when you made them...gulum gulum off they went into my tummy when you served them in my plate. It had been ages since I ate them. Now that you have provided the recipe, this weekend is reserved for making Maddur Vade.
Thank you, Lakshmi for the yummy vade.
Cheers,
Sandhya

Mysore-Bangalore odaduvaga, train nalli atleast 2-3 maddur vade thogondu thinta idwi..,though we were cribbing that, it was not good, we used to eat..
I'm missing those days.., ur pictures are very good..
ee vardalle madthene :)
yum yum maddur vade .. sooperaagige .. its been ages since i made these
Looks crispy n delicious LG...would love to pick one from the picture..
hmmmmmmmm I love madur vade and look at the wonderful combo madur vade and tea.sakkath!
so what if it is a sinful, calorie loaded, non-nutritious snack ? I never fight temptation when it comes to good old Maddur Vade. Judging by the sizzling picture, I'm sure your hubby would have cooed : "Naalenoo maadthiya, haan ?"
vade with cofee is very much tempting.
Oooh, I LOVE maddur vade! I always make it a point to stop at Maddur Tiffany's on the way to Mysore and have their delicious vades! This looks great, LG!
This savory fried treat sounds like an ideal afternoon snack!
Hi Lakshmi,
Lovely recipe. I tried your recipe and came out very very well. I will post it in my blog soon referring to you. Thanks for the recipe
naanu maaduve kane...slurp...mouth watering lakshmi. wish u were in Dallas
Never eaten this snack...looks yummy...will surely try it out.
Hi Lakshmi,
I did Maddur vade during the weekend as my son wanted it. Today, I shared it with my colleagues. They all loved it and I've shared your recipe link to all of them.
I am also from Bangalore and many felt they got transported to Maddur for few minutes after eating the Vade :-)
Thanks,
Mina.
@Mina,
Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. They made my day.
hello, ivattu maddur vadey thinna beku antha anisitu, google maadidey, nimma site banthu ... sakhattagidey nimma recipe!! makkalu thumba enjoy maadidru!! thank you!!
i want to let you know some variations that i tried, it worked great!
instead of chillies, i used saarina pudi and dhaniya pudi ... my kids dont like chillies!!
instead of plain hot oil during mixing the dough, i used arshina/saasivey/ingu vaggarney ... sakhattagittu!!
also, instead of patting on baking paper, i patted on my hand ... solpa neerina kai maadikobeku ... works very well!!
thanks again for your great recipe, very authentic taste, maddurigey hogi thinda haagey aaytu!!
