- Wash the urad dal thoroughly. Soak the Urad Dal and rice in water for 2 hours. After 2 hours strain the water. GRINDING BONDA BATTER: Strain water from soaked dal and rice. Add the dal and rice to a wet grinder or mixer grinder. Grind it by adding 3 tablespoon of water. Do not add more water at once. Grind till the urdhal is smooth without any lumps. If we grind it in mixer, just add water little by little at a time and grind it till the batter is smooth. Take it from grinder after the Urad Dal is ground properly. then take out the smooth bonda batter and beat it nicely for 3-5 minutes using a whisker. This will aerate the batter. SPICE UP THE BATTER: Take out the batter in a vessel. Add green chili, peppercorns, ginger, coconut pieces, curry leaves and coriander leaves along with salt and give a good mix. DEEP FRYING PROCESS: Heat oil in a pan. Check the hotness of the oil. If you drop a pinch of batter, it should raise immediately in the oil. Then the oil is ready. Wet your fingers and palm with water and take a dollop of batter, roll it like a ball and then gently drop in oil. In each batch add 3-4 pieces. Deep fry the bondas till they are crispy and golden brown. Flip the bondas so that they get evenly fried up and make sure the flame is low while frying the bondas. Take out the fried bondas and keep it on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve hot with coconut chutney.
