Mangodi

Sandige or vadagam is a fried snack, originating from the Indian subcontinent, popular in the south Indian states of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. It is also served as an accompaniment with meals. Sandige is prepared by making a gruel of the main ingredient and spiced with asafoetida, chili paste and salt. The gruel is poured on a plastic sheet or a big piece of cloth and dried under the sun for a couple of days. To make aralu sandige and avalakki sandige, the main ingredients are added to the gruel and made into balls and sun-dried. Peni and avalakki sandige are made using chakli molds and extruders. The sun-dried sandige is stored to use throughout the year. It is deep-fried in hot oil before serving.
