Vada

VADA:
Vada (IAST: va?a, Tamil: ???, Telugu: ??, Tulu: ???, Kannada: ???, Malayalam: ??); also known as vadai, wada or vade (pronounced "vah-daa", "vah-dey", or "vah-die"), is a savoury snack from South India.
Vada can vary in shape and size, but are usually either doughnut- or disc-shaped and are about between 5 and 8 cm across. They are made from dal, lentil, gram flour or potato.
Vada is a traditional South Indian food known from antiquity. Although they are commonly prepared at home, vadas are as well a typical street food in the Indian Subcontinent and Sri Lanka. They are usually a morning food, but in street stalls and in railway stations, as well as inside the Indian Railways, they are available as a snack all through the day.
