Recipe Notes
  • Steaming time may vary as per the type of your steamer, so check after 25 minutes, if not done steam for another 5-6 minutes.
  • Do not slice when it is hot.
  • Fry the wadis at medium to high flame, though there is nothing to cook, you no need to fry for long time, fry it for just outer layer.
  • You may also serve it warm once steamed, you might no need to fry.
  • Or you may also fry it without the besan batter coating.
  • Serve it the way you love to eat, but do not forget to enjoy.
