Made with simple ingredients and easy to prepare, they're perfect for a quick evening snack or a delicious accompaniment to your favorite tea.

To make these vadas, you'll start by mixing chopped onions with oil to enhance their flavor. Then, combine gram flour, refined flour, rice flour, finely chopped green chilies, curry leaves, ginger, red chili powder (1/2 teaspoon), and salt. Mix everything thoroughly to form a batter.

For extra flavor, consider adding chopped coriander, grated coconut, or a pinch of asafoetida to the batter. Enjoy the irresistible taste of these crispy Kerala-style onion vadas!
