Masal vadai is the most popular south Indian street food.You can find in most of the Tea shops in Tamil Nadu.When I Walk across the Tea shop where they are making these vadas the smell is so tempting.It sells so fast that it is just wrapped up in a newspaper and parceled.
It is a perfect evening snack with a cup of hot Tea on a rainy day or it could be a appetizer.

- 6-8 Red chillies

3.Crush the fennel seeds and add it to the dough.
4.Do not add too much water while grinding as it will absorb too much oil.make a ball out of the dough spread it in your palm in a circle and drop it in hot oil one by one and fry till brown.
