Kanji vada in Haridwar
Winter only, and worth going out of your way for: few places outside the Doab still ferment the brine properly.
Kanji vada
Lentil fritters dropped into a cold, sour brine of black carrots and mustard seed that has been left to ferment in the sun. Tart, fizzy and bracing: a north Indian winter drink you can chew.
How it's eaten
Drink the brine first, then eat the soaked vada. Cold months only.
