Ingredients:2 cups left over rice(cooked rice soaked overnight)
10 small onions(chopped finely)
1 tsp chilly powder

Method:

I have used the left over rice and soaked the rice overnight and then smashed it using the hands.
Take a mixing bowl and add the rice ,drain the excess water in it.
Add in the chopped onion , chilly powder, fennel seeds and salt mix well.

Spread a plastic sheet or cloth.Take 1 tsp amount of vadam and keep it in the sheet,you can use the hand and arrange it .complete it with remaining mix. once done leave it for a day to dry it in hot sun. Same day evening take out and change to a big plate.
Next day keep the plate in the hot sun. Repeat this for 2 days or till the vathal becomes completely dry.
Now the vadam is ready ,store it in a dry air tight bottle.Whenever required take it out and fry in oil ,serve it.
You can Make vatha kuzhambu using these vathal or just fry it in oil and serve it as a side dish.
