    how to make sorakaya vadalu recipe, easy sorakaya garelu recipe

    Sorakaya / Anapakaya / Lauki / Bottle Gourd is a commonly used vegetable in Andhra Pradesh. We make many Andhra recipes using Bottle Gourd such as Sorakaya Pachadi, Sorakaya Palu Posina Koora, Sorakaya Pappu and Sorakaya Perugu Pachadi.

    These traditional Andhra vadas are crispy outside and soft inside and best when eaten hot. These are usually served as a breakfast with yogurt or as a snack with a cup of chai or coffee. The good thing is these Sorakaya Vadalu doesn’t take much time to make. All you need is a few ingredients and a little time to make these yummy Bottle Gourd Vadalu.

    Notes

    The oil should not be smoking hot. Fry the vadas over a medium flame. 
    I have used the grated ginger and chopped chillies in this recipe, but you can use ginger green chilli paste. 
    The oil should be hot enough to fry the vadas.
