  • 1 sprig curry leaves minced
  • 3 tbsp minced coriander leaves
  • 1 tbsp semolina
  • A pinch hing
  • A pinch baking soda
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions

  • Into the batter, add all ingredients except the oil and give it a good mix. The batter is to be of dropping consistency. Add water if needed, but make sure to add very slowly so as to not to make the batter loose.
  • Heat oil in an iron kadhai for deep frying. Once well heated - test by dropping a pinch of batter, if it sizzles up, the oil is ready - drop spoonfuls into the oil.
  • Fry in medium heat tossing the bondas till golden brown.
