Rice Vadai (Fritters)

There will never be an end to my rice story. Rice is the one I must have everyday regardless where I am and what I do. I bet maybe I can include you as well ah? Where are you Malaysians? Rice is your favorite right? Of course, so to speak on your behalf (Ghee Rice & Nasi Dagang). Vadai out of cooked rice? How to make these crispy on the outside and soft bite inside rice vadai? Please read on followers of "cook with nava-k". Take care.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cup of cooked white rice
1/2 cup all purpose flour.
2 red chillies - remove seeds and sliced thinly
1 (about 80g) onion - chopped
2 stalks coriander leaves - chopped/sliced into fine pieces
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cornflour
salt and pepper to taste
oil for frying

Method:
Add water (about 1 1/2 cups) into the rice.
Stir and cook over low heat till mushy but with some grains still intact.
Remove and let it cool down.
Mix in all the other ingredients except oil.
Combine and shape the sticky dough into round flat balls. 
If the dough is sticks to your hands, wet hands first before shaping.
Deep fry until dark golden brown in color.
Drain over kitchen towel and its ready to go into the mouth.

  1. Now THIS is the type of fritter I'm talking about. The ones I made were alright, but they didn't really pack the flavor I was looking for. Definitely like this recipe :) Buzzed!

  2. This remind me a little of Italian Aranchini, those wonderful little risotto ball. These are spicier so more to my liking..

  4. hi nava, this is a great vadai recipe. it is one of my favorite fritters, especially the curry taste.
    my blogger friend ayeesha just email me yesterday, she will do guest post for me - also on a vadai fritter but of slightly different ingredients from yours :)
    most likely hers will be published friday next week, that means your cheese write up can be posted around wednesday aug 10th. so you still have time to do it and many thanks for your positive and kind response on this. take care.

  5. These sound delicious. We used to make fish or crab cakes and bulk them out with rice, it also made them hold together better. The Italians do it with left over risotto too. I like your spicy version better!

Malaysian Sodhi (Indian Coconut Milk Stew)

Sodhi. Coconut milk infused and laced ( Shrimp Coconut Milk ) Indian coconut stew. In fact, sodhi is the branching of  Masak Lemak ( Vegetarian Malay Spinach Coconut Stew ), or vice-versa or whichever. Sodhi is definitely a popularity amongst the Indians and without a doubt, in my house as well. Sodhi is usually drenched over rice, and eaten alongside side dishes. Trust me, nothing like sodhi soaking or flooding up your rice and then, using your hands for mushy-mushy diving inside eating style. Sodhi. Like, every once a week in my house. In other words, a regularity and it is a dish that can be put up effortlessly. Needless to say, easy cooking and mind you, there are other variances of sodhi too, which I have already shared before ( Malu Kirata , Kiri Hodi , Prawn Sodhi & Cabbage Sodhi ). This latest sodhi? Basically, the humble, basic simplicity, but why a Malaysian Sodhi? Well, Cooked by this “The Crazy Lover” who is a typical, true and true Malaysian, and cooked in her, most o

Mochakottai Karuvadu Kulumbu (Field Beans Salted Fish Curry)

Look at this earthen pot and in it thick, salty, spicy and vibrantly exciting to our palates and eyes  Mochakottai Karuvadu Kulumbu (Field Beans Salted Fish Curry). Like immediately can trigger our hunger throne right? I know. I am definitely a big fan of this Indian style salted fish curry and salted fish on the whole by itself ( Spicy Ikan Bilis Potato , Sambal Tumis Ikan Bilis  &  Sambal Kentang Ikan Asin ), can drive me crazy because I so love saltiness. In fact, every day can be a salted fish meal day for me ( Salted Fish Pickle , Bean Sprouts Salted Fish  & Steamed Pork Salted Fish ). But, I think we all know it? Too much of saltiness and salt can ruin our health? Of course. Then again, there is such a thing as every now and then saltiness as our best friend? How do make this salted fish curry? Nothing much, no major confusing cooking matter ( Salted Fish Bone Curry ). My recipes as always will never cause you to struggle in the kitchen. Ingredients listed below

Restoran Orkid Thai - Section 9, Shah Alam

By the third day, Iphone 7 started showing its dark side. Really a terrifying-horrible shocking discovery, it kept rebooting every now and then for no apparent reason. Obviously, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Duh! Its a brand new phone I paid from  my savings ( Da De Bak Kut Teh Subang Jaya ), never ever have I encountered such a problem with my previous faithfully yours 6 year old Iphone 5. Absolutely heart wracking, I really couldn’t find the time ( Karaikudi Chicken Curry & Fikcles Cafe Taman Tun ) to rush to the service centre amidst the busyness of getting ready for the family wedding and another travel venture ( Oats Fried Prawn s ). Keeping my fingers crossed, hoping it’s just a minor teething problem, I went ahead with shopping nearby Plaza Shah Alam and Plaza Masalam. Accompanied by my niece, we bought a couple of things and then of course, naturally, shopping is more or less regarded as synonymous with hunger throne.
