Dahi Bada image

This is actually a traditional Indian (Hyderabad) recipe eaten as a snack or at high tea. We make these Dahi Badas especially during Iftaar in Ramadan. This is my Mom's recipe, it has a Hyderabadi touch!

1 pinch baking soda
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped mint leaf
1 -2 green chili, chopped
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger

Steps:

  • Mix all the ingredients for the batter (with water)and keep aside for 10-15 minutes.
  • Mix the spices& herbs in the yoghurt; It should be of thin consistency.
  • Heat oil in a frypan; Lightly drop the batter with a teaspoon or tablespoon depending upon your taste for the size.
  • Deep fry to a medium golden brown and drop these into the yoghurt mixture, directly from the oil; Please be careful of the spatters while dropping the badas. Alternatively, you could drop the hot badas in salted water. Let them soak for 4-5 mins and press between the palms to take out excess water (please don't press too hard). And then transfer to the yoghurt mixture.
  • Let them soak for 5-10 mins in the yoghurt mixture.
  • Heat about a quarter cup oil and fry all the ingredients for 1-2 minutes; Be careful that they don't burn!
  • Transfer this to the yoghurt mixture immediately and cover the lid.
  • Your dahi badas are ready to enjoy!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my Dahi Bada didn't turn out very well. They were too dense and not very flavorful.

These Dahi Bada were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my Dahi Bada turned out perfect! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The yogurt sauce was also delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

These Dahi Bada were good, but not great. The batter was a bit too thick and the Bada were not as fluffy as I would have liked. The yogurt sauce was also a bit too tangy for my taste. Overall, I was disappointed with this recipe.
