Ashadhi Ekadashi is a holy confluence of devotion, worship, and sattvic food. When we say fasting, we feel like eating many foods. We like to eat foods like sweet potato, sago khichdi, parathas, sago vada, bhagar. But we get bored of eating the same foods. If you are in the mood to eat crispy, tasty, and healthy food on the day of fasting, medu vada is a good option. We always eat vada made from urad dal.
This vada is full of protein and does not let you feel a lack of energy throughout the day. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this traditional delicious medu vada can be eaten even during fasting. Let's see how to make delicious crispy medu vada on the day of fasting.
