Soyabeans are a rich source of protein, calcium and a horde of other minerals, making this a really healthy dish! Soak the soybeans overnight to make them easily digestible and to remove gas-forming substances from it. Fruit salt, which is available under the brand name "Eno" makes the vadas very light and fluffy. Remember to follow the exact instructions as given below when adding ingredients else the vadas will become hard.

    I enjoyed this receipe. triedout in sandwich teflon toaster and it came out very well rather than appa kadai. some I tried out frying in oil too. That also tasted well. It is a very good receipe for diet conscious people.
