Vadai has always received a life-long love from us Lankans for its homely flavours, childhood memories and multiple good times. Be it isso, parippu or ulundu, vadai is always welcome in a Sri Lankan tummy.
We’ve broken this age-old snack into a few easy steps, so have a go and let us know how you fared!

- Ulundu 500g
- Green Chillies 4
- Coriander Leaves
- Cumin Powder ¼ tsp
- Salt 1 ½ tsp
- Onion 1 (big)
- Chili Flakes

Method:
- Soak Ulundu for 8 – 10 hours
- Then grind it in a grinder adding very little water
- Add salt, chopped onion, chopped green chili, cumin powder, chilli flakes and coriander leaves
- Mix well
- Heat oil, make shapes by dipping the thumb in a bowl of oil or water and making a hole in a dollop of batter
- Drop it in the oil and bring the flame to medium heat. Cook until golden brown (time depends on the size of the vadai)
