We all crave for chaats. Dahi Vadas is one of the popular chaats. However, being health conscious, we also want to avoid eating fried foods. I tried making a healthier version of dahi vadas by steaming the vadas instead of deep frying. Surprisingly, the taste was very similar to the traditional fried vadas.With elimination of oil, it becomes a very healthy food with lentils and dahi being the main ingredients. You can satisfy your cravings and stay healthy too.
