Kothimbir Vadi is another Maharashtrian delicacy. It works great as an appetizer or even for snacking. Kothimbir Vadi tastes especially good when they are hot. It feels so good to eat them when it's raining outside with some tea or coffee. Now, my mom used to steam Kothimbir vadi in pressure cooker but I steam them in microwave, it's fast.
