Philips Air Fryer Sabudana Wada

I have been working on my Air Fryer Recipes and to tell you the truth, I ma loving every bit of it. After making Air Fried Kuttu Aloo Pakode {Buckwheat Potato Fritters} and Air Fried Salted Nuts, I dared to try the very popular and much desired Philips Air Fryer Sabudana Wada.

The 3 days journey with the Gadget has been amazing and nothing less than encouraging. My best critique is my husband and even Amit finshed these up without any complain.

To be honest I wasn’t sure if he would like it since these didn’t pick up the deep fried color but as delicious and crunchy as the Deep Fried ones. And guess what? No extra oil, therefore cutting almost half of the calories that we get form fat in this recipe. Now that is called an achievement. Don’t you think so?

Here are some Benefits and Pointers using your Air Fryer!

Always use your Air-fryer on a counter which has space around for the hot air to circulate and escape. Do not use it placed near the wall. Make your Air Fryer your best friend and use it frequently.
The products made in Air fryer are crisp and crunchy but not exactly how they are when deep fried. So expect that.
It is great to prepare low fat meals. The meals prepared are not oil-free but very less oil is used comparatively.
The air-fryer is very easy to clean up.
The frozen fried foods are so conveniently heated in it without re-frying the food.
All your fritters, fries and wadas can be reheated in it, maintaining the crispness of the food.
There is no after smell of the fried food, in the house.
You do not have to baby sit the food while it air fries inside the air fryer. You have more time on hand.
It has multiple use and can be used for baking and grilling as well besides air-frying.
It is definitely a smart kitchen tool. Keep a watch on my blog for more Air Fryer recipes.

I fully recommend buying the air-fryer whenever your budget allows. Go for the regular size for smaller family and you can buy the XL for larger family.

The other way I tried Sabudana Wadas – Sabudana wada in Appe Pan . Other Sabudana Recipes from the blog are – Sabudana Thalipeeth and Sabudana Kheer .

This recipe has couple of steps as mentioned below.

Soaking & Preparing the Sabudana

Philips Air Fryer Sabudana Wada

Take 1 cup of raw sabudana and wash it under running water 2 times or till the water is clean. Now soak the sabudana in enough water, to cover the sabudana and little bit more, almost 1&1/2 cups. Soak it for 2-3 hrs till the sabudana is easily crushed and mashed between your thumb and finger. This is a very important step for the perfect wada. Every brand of sabudana is different and takes different time to get fully soaked. So keep checking. It is only ready to be used when it is easily mashed.

Roasting and Grinding the Peanuts

Another important step is adding peanuts to the wada mix. You can dry roast the peanuts and then let them cool a little bit. Then grind them coarsely in food processor. Do not make a fine powder. Alternatively, you may air fry these peanuts for 8 minutes and they are ready to be used. Whichever method works for you.
