1 cup sago

4 potatoes - medium-sized

cup peanuts

1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

chopped coriander

1 tsp sugar or as required

To make Sabudana Vada, first of all, soak the sabudana in water for at least 5 hours or overnight.

Now filter all the water from the soaked sago well.

Take care that no water remains in the sabudana. The water will make the vada moist and sticky. Also, the vadas will absorb a good amount of oil while frying, due to which the excess oil in them will spoil the whole taste.

You can press the sago into the sieve lightly with a spoon. Or leave the sago in a sieve for about 20 to 30 minutes to drain off the excess water.

After draining the water, take out the sabudana in a mixing bowl and keep it aside.

Now wash and clean 4 medium-sized potatoes thoroughly in water first.

Now boil it and take it out and cool it. Now peel it and mash it.

After this, fry the peanuts in a pan till they become crisp. Let it cool and then grind it into a coarse powder.

Now add mashed potatoes and coarsely roasted peanuts to the sabudana and mix in a mixing bowl.

Also add rock salt, cumin, sugar, ginger, green chili, green coriander, and lemon juice to it.

Make sure that you mix the entire mixture very well.

Now take some part of this mixture in hand and make flat vadas.

Similarly prepare vadas with all the mixture.

Heat oil in a pan for frying.

Once the oil is hot, put the prepared vada in it.
