About Thayir Vadai / Dahi Vada

Posting Thayir Vada recipe in my blog is a long time pending. Since I make this on either festival days or for guests I fail to take photographs somehow. This time I made it for Sunday Lunch to take photos exclusively to post in my blog. Who can refuse to have this soft mouth melting Vadas soaked in curd? If you follow very simple tips while making this you can get perfect Thayir vadas as served in Marriage feasts and restaurants...
