In an Oven / Toaster Oven

FAQs
Is coconut chutney included in the Haldiram's Medu Vada 24-piece pack?
Yes, the pack includes a ready-to-serve frozen coconut chutney pouch inside that thaws quickly in warm water.
Can I air-fry Haldiram’s Medu Vadas?

Do I need to thaw the vadas before heating?

How do I make Sambar Vada with this pack?
Heat the vadas using your preferred method, then drop them into a bowl of piping hot sambar (like Haldiram's Minute Khana Sambar) and let them soak for 2–3 minutes before serving.

The primary ingredient is black gram lentils (urad dal), making the base naturally free of gluten ingredients. Check the packaging label for specific allergen facility statements.
