Pin Killu Vadam is nothing but a easy vadam recipe made with leftover rice. We pinch(killu) small portions of the leftover rice dough and make vadams hence the name. We dont make vathals every year but only occasionally, I love all vadams esp killu vadam, koozh vadam and javvarisi vathal(sago vadam)…I actually wanted to try javvarisi vadam but ended up making this easy messfree vadam…..Amma usually makes it plain with jeera but I made it onion flavoured.I never ever thought or imagined myself laying vadams all by myself and here goes the vadam recipe from my kitchen. During school days, I remember when amma and me would go to the terrace early morning to lay vadams and we had a netted box like to cover and protect the vadams from the crows 🙂 Now I just had to utilise the balcony sunlight to dry up the vadams.I am happy and completely satisfied about the outcome but sad that I made a very small batch it got over already, have just reserved 4-5 fried vadams for my travel post.

Expert Tips
You can test fry 1 or 2 vadams and check…After deep frying if its crispy fully then the vadams are done you can store in airtight container.If it sticks in between your teeth and is chewy then it needs more drying.Dry for few more days in hot sun. Pinch only small portions. You can use a plain white cloth or plastic sheet for drying the vadams. I dried it in my balcony and had to depend on the 8AM-12PM sunlight as after that we dont get sunlight in our balcony so I had to dry it for 4 days to get it dried completely.So after that I just placed it in the balcony till evening just for the moisture to go then stored in a container to protect it from ants 🙂 Then again I sundried it. If you are drying it in terrace then it will get dried in a day or 2 as its very hot it dries up quickly. While grinding grind it to a thick porridge consistency not too smooth. Oil should be hot, test one vadam if it comes up(raises) immediately after its dropped then its the right heat you need. You can add your choice of flavours or make it just plain like me. As I am doing it for the first time I made only little not in bulk. If you have leftover rice today then immerse it in water tonite and then the next day you can grind it and make vadams.
