Tips #
The Sabudana/Sago has to be really soaked well. Not even a little hardness should be left in the sago.I used small size sabudana if you used big size sabudana then it soaked for 6 hours.
The water needs to be drained well. Use a seive or a colander to drain the water. The sabudana vada mixture is dry.
If there is moisture in the mixture, then you won’t get a proper shape of the sabudana vadas and they will become soggy from inside.
The oil has to be neither too hot nor warm. If its hot, the vadas will burn from outside leaving the inside portion uncooked. If warm, the vadas will absorb oil, making the vadas loaded with oil.
