The process of making keto medu vada is very similar to making normal medu vada. The only difference between the two is that the flour used to make the former is keto-friendly. Medu Vada uses urad dal to create its dough-like texture. On a normal healthy diet, urad dal would be considered a healthy ingredient but in a keto diet, one is not allowed to have pulses. Therefore, it is essential to replace urad dal. This keto-recipe uses a combination of almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk and xanthan gum. These ingredients are keto-friendly to consume.
