A deep fried savory doughnut made with semolina, onion, yogurt, cumin seeds and ginger.
If you are looking for a quick and without fermentation of dough, this Semolina / Vada Vada is a perfect choice.
I have rest the dough for 30 minutes before frying also added freshly ground black pepper but this is optional, you may omit it altogether.
Running out of green chili so have used red chili instead.
Because of the dough was very sticky, my Semolina / Rava Vada did not have a smooth round shape, nevertheless it tasted terrific!
