The vadai was crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The prawn and ikan bilis were always crispy and it complemented the texture of the vadai. It was my first time eating dhal vadai. I did not fancy the compact texture of the vadai as it was not what I was expecting but it is definitely worth trying as it is healthy. I placed them in the air fryer to heat up for around 5-10 minutes and the texture was maintained.
I recently tried the cheese vadai from a popular vadai stall at our local cooked food centre, and it was an absolute delight! The crispy exterior gave way to a soft, flavorful interior that had just the right amount of spiciness from the cheese. It's perfectly balanced—not too overpowering but enough to give your taste buds a little kick. This snack is incredibly versatile and makes for a great treat any time of day. Highly recommend giving it a try if you're in the area!
The workers at Original Vadai are damn rude to customers. They behave like their customers owe them a living. Visited the Geylang outlet on 1 June 2025 at 2:55pm, and this will be the last time I will patronise Original Vadai. They do not deserve my business!!!
