How to Make Bonda Chaat

• Soak the urad dal, channa dal and rice for about four hours.
• Grind the dals into a paste.
• Do not add water.
• To this mixture, add the finely chopped green chillies and ground pepper corns.
• Add salt to taste. (you can do a taste test at this stage to see if the salt is sufficient)
• Pour oil in a kadai and wait till it is sufficiently heated.
• Take a little batter in your palm and drop it into the oil carefully.
• Fry till golden brown, turning it over occasionally until all sides are done.
• When the bondas are slightly warm, cut them into bite sized pieces.
• In a bowl, mix the curd, chaat masala, chilli powder, and salt to taste (only if needed).
• Mix well with a spoon.
• On a serving plate, place the cut bondas.
• Spread the curd mixture with the masala over the bonda.
• Add the mint chutney and sweet chutney.
• Add the finely chopped onions, followed by mixture/sev.
• Finally, garnish it with chopped coriander leaves. You may omit the mint and sweet chutney and it would be just as tasty
