Quick & healthy vadai !

for this vadai, I used  all left over things like-
 rice 1 cup
boiled white kidney beans/ lobia 2 tbsp
boiled black chana 2 tbsp
onions 2 big finely chopped
green capsicum 1 ground with green chilies to taste, ginger 2" & curry leaves 2 sprigs
besan/ chick pea flour 2 tbsp
corn flour 2 tbsp
salt to taste
fresh coriander leaves finely chopped 2 tbsp
oil to fry
potatoes 2 small boiled & smashed

Method
I ground kidney beans, chana, rice too, mixed all the rest with salt, don't add any water, add the flours, if sticky add some more flours.
Heat oil, make small flat vadas & deep fry in hot oil, it didn't take in oil at all !
It was really good, we loved it hot in the cold here !


ps- you can make this with left over rice, onion, green chilies, potatoes also, even if you don't have boiled kidney beans or chana, you may need to add some besan & cornflour to get the binding & to get the crispness from the cornflour.
