Gummadi Vadiyalu are classic South Indian sun-dried fritters made from grated ash gourd (white pumpkin) and spices. These crunchy delights are a perfect addition to any traditional Andhra meal. At Budget Baskets 4U, we prepare these vadiyalu using home-style methods — mixing fresh gummadi kaya (ash gourd) with cumin, green chillies, salt, and rice flour, then sun-drying them for days. Once dried, they’re stored and can be deep-fried instantly for a crispy side dish.
