These Sabudana Vadas are a delicious and crispy treat perfect for fasting days. Air-fried to golden perfection, they offer a healthier alternative to deep-frying while maintaining a satisfying texture.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

60 grams soaked sago/ sabudana
100 grams boiled sweet potato
20 grams amaranth flour
1 tablespoon crushed peanuts
1 tablespoon ghee
2 chopped green chillis
Sendha Namak as per taste
Spices as required

Procedure:

In a bowl, add boiled sweet potatoes and mash them well. Add soaked and fluffy sago balls, red chili powder, coriander leaves, crushed peanuts, and sendha namak.
In the last, add the amaranth flour as a binding agent.
Mix them all and prepare like a dough. Make small tikkis out of it.
Preheat the air-fryer for about 10 mins at 390 degree F. When done, pull out the air fryer basket and line it with baking paper.
Arrange the tikkis on the air-fryer lined with baking paper and brush them with a little oil if you like (optional) and air-fry for 10 mins, flip them, and repeat the process for another 10 mins.
Serve them with coriander chutney or just yogurt.

Nutritional Benefits:

These Sabudana Vadas offer a nutrient-dense and satisfying option for fasting periods. Sago, or sabudana, provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy, while sweet potatoes contribute vitamins A and C, potassium, and dietary fiber.
Amaranth flour adds protein and essential amino acids, supporting muscle health and overall wellness.
Crushed peanuts offer healthy fats and protein, enhancing satiety. Ghee provides a rich flavor and essential fatty acids, although it’s used sparingly.
