Recipe Notes

Notes

Wipe the back side of the laddle once in a while, while making boondis, otherwise the boondis will not fall evenly on the oil.

Just before serving add 1/2 tsp of crushed pepper to the boondi and serve.

You could add fried peanuts in place of cashews.

Serve boondis as garnishing to curd vada, chats etc.
