Where these numbers come from. This is an estimate for a typical home-cooked Medu Vada, not a laboratory measurement. A restaurant version, or one cooked with more oil, will be higher. Nobody has reviewed it against a licensed nutrition database. Cooking changes food, and the same dish varies from kitchen to kitchen.

What's in it

urad dal, green chilli, curry leaves, black pepper, oil. Deep-fried.

Cuisine: Tamil Nadu, India
Diet: Vegan
