Mangodi
Sandige , Vadam or Vethal 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 out of one of the main ingredients, either rice, wheat or sago, which is then spiced up with asafoetida, green chili paste and salt. The warm vadam gruel is poured out in small portions with a spoon onto a plastic sheet or a large clean cloth and sun-dried 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.
