About Sambar Vada

Today I had Sambar Vada(i) for lunch. At the restaurant I asked for Sambar Vada(i) as usual, at that the teller asked me whether I want Sambar Vada or Vada Sambar.

What the difference?

Sambar Vada- where the vada’s are pre-marinated in the Samabar for a long time. Generally those vada’s don’t have onions in them and the size is comparatively smaller, just like button Idli.

Vada Sambar- the person who will serve you, will put vada in a serving bowl and pour sambar in it.
