Vade Saguti OR Kombdi Vade

Vade sguti or Komdi vade is a staple dish of Malvan. Malvan is a town located in Sindhudurg District - southernmost district of Maharashtra. This is a coastal area. By name you must have thought that it must be some snacks or type of crispy Vada. But here Vada is multigrain  puris. We had our Potluck party on last weekend, so my friend Vaishali made vade and solkadhi, and Manasi made special Malvani Chicken curry. I prepared 'kaju curry' for vegetarian people. Vade is a must try dish and vegetarian can also eat it with kaju curry or any other sprout curry.
