#MasaalVadai : Idly - Vadai and Pongal - Vadai are typical breakfast menu in the hotels of Tamil Nadu. The vadai served for breakfast is Ulundhu vadai. There are two types of vadais widely prepared in Tamil Nadu. One is Ulundu vadai and another one is Masal Vadai or Paruppu vadai. There is one more vadai called milagu vadai that is made as an offering to the Lord Anjaneya.
Masal vadai is the famous evening snack served with coffee or tea. Road side tea stalls are popular for masal vadai.
#Vadai is prepared at home on festival days or on any special occasion to have with payasam.
