South Indian Crispies - aka Javarisi VadAm

If you have guests for dinner and you are still cooking, one thing you can do is to get some papads, or Javarisi vadam's (made from Sago or Sabudhana), pop them in the microwave and give them as an appetizer of sorts.

This is a videoblog of how to make Javarisi VadAm from scratch.

Ingredients (or proportions)

For 1 1/2 cup Sago, 7 cups water, 2 medium size Indian (or Thai) short Chili's, 1 spoon salt, 1/4 spoon of Asafoedita (aka Hing), one small lemon

Also required : Saran wrap or plastic sheets, some oil to smear on the sheet if you are not using Saran wrap.




You can have fun giving the kids squirrel/Crow watching duty while the Vadam's dry in the sun.

Hope you enjoy making and eating Vadams!
