  • Prep Time 5 Mins
  • Cook Time 25 Mins
  • Servings 3

Ingredients

  • ½ kg Onion Slices
  • 2 tbsp Chopped Green Chillies
  • ½ tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Ginger-Garlic Paste
  • 1. 1/2 tsp Red chilli powder
  • Salt – to taste
  • 2 tbsp Chopped Curry Leaves
  • ¼ cup Chopped Coriander Leaves
  • ¼ cup Chopped Mint
  • 3 tbsp Rice Flour
  • 2 tbsp Maida (all-purpose flour)
  • ¾ cup Besan (gram flour)
  • Oil – for deep frying

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients except flours to the slightly thickly sliced onions and mix well by hand, pressing firmly.
  2. Now add the maida, rice flour, and besan. Mix again into a semi-dry dough—moist enough to bind, but not watery.
  3. Wet your hands slightly and shape into small balls. Drop them into hot oil. Let them fry on medium flame without touching for 2–3 minutes.
  4. Then, gently flip and fry until the bubbling reduces and bondas turn golden brown and crisp.
  5. Bondas may feel soft right off the stove; let them rest on a wire rack or perforated plate for 5 minutes. They’ll become crunchy and irresistibly delicious.
