Made from grams like the Bengal Gram, vadas are commonly made in the shape of doughnuts or thick, flat circles. They are found in almost every South Indian home, restaurant, places for street food in Chennai, and catering too. Typically, a vada is enjoyed with breakfast as an accompaniment to the traditional idli and sambar. The preparation of this dish involves common spices and ingredients like peppercorns, cumin, chillies, onions, curry leaves and so on. The batter completes the preparation, and when served hot, it is best enjoyed with a helping of chutney or sambar. Vadas have many variants as well like the uddina vada, parippu vada, batata vada, masala vada, ulundu vada and so on.
