Dahi Vada is a very popular Indian appetiser. It’s sold as a street food in various parts of India and of course people make it at home. Mangoes being in season and in abundance I chose to make a Mango Dahi Vada and gave a twist to the usual one. It became sweet Mango Dahi Vada and not a complete savoury one. Atleast in Bengal the trend is to make a savoury one and not a sweet one. #MangoShahiVada #MadhubishsKitchen #Mango
