Last Updated On: May 4, 2019 by Sowmya Venkatachalam

Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe
Another variety of spicy vadam/vathal. We can use this vadam dough to make ommapodi or thenkuzhal vadam. Ommapodi or thenkuzhal vadam is a spicy and crunchy treat for any Indian Rice Varieties. Just with right ratio of rice batter and water, this would be one of the easiest fryums (vadam) to make at home. Every tamil calendar month "Maasi" (feb mid to mar mid), its a tradition in most of us to make crispy vadam at whole lots which we could use it till next year. Crunchy and spicy Ommapodi madam is a perfect accompaniment for many SouthIndian gravies too 🙂

Notes

  1. Adjust the amount of water if needed. Its always a good choice to reserve some hot water. If the prepared batter is too thick then add the hot water and mix it well.
  2. If you find difficult is squeezing the madam mixture through the murukku press, then add little hot water mix again.Then fill it in murukku press and press it.
  3. Add lemon juice if you like some tanginess in the vadam mixture
