Transcript excerpt

This restaurant in Mumbai, India has the very best breakfast, and I'll tell you what it is. This is my favorite dish in the whole world. We're in Maharashtra, India, and we're about to get sabudana vada. Let me tell you everything about this and show you how it tastes. Thank you. These are Indian donuts, the most popular thing to eat for breakfast in the state of Maharashtra. No they're made out of tapioca and surrounded in peanuts, but this place that I'll tell you is the most famous one to get them in all of Mumbai. And you eat it like this. They always serve it with two spoons to help you oh my god. I'm gonna make a mess out of this, you guys. Don't roast me. To crunch it open and look what's inside. When fried, the sabadana pearls in the vada create a unique crunchy texture outside while keeping the inside soft and chewy, making it a perfect blend of textures.
