    When i prepared this snack in home, i remember my bangalore days. When i was staying in PG,near to it is a roadside snacks shop(I cant say it as a shop,it is just a 'thallu vandi') . On the way from office, me and my friend kavitha used to go to this shop once in awhile to get hot hot vada and bonda. I like the spicy chutney they serve on top of the bonda's . My favorite is mirchi bonda and egg bonda. I like the way they serve by cutting the bonda in pieces ,top it with spicy chutney,onion,shredded carrot and coriander leaves.Yum yum.... i am drooling.

egg bonda

Recipe:

*Finely chop red onion ,shred carrot and chop cilantro.Mix all in a bowl with very little salt.

1.In a bowl,take besan,chilli powder,salt,turmeric powder,baking soda and ajwain (little bit crushed in hand), Add water little by little and mix into thick batter.
2.Heat the oil in a deep pan . Once it is warm, dip the egg in besan batter and place slowly in oil.
3.Turn the bonda every now and then .Cook it till the bonda turn slightly brown. Remove from oil and place it in tissue paper to drain excess oil.
4.We can serve the egg bonda as it is with chutney as side dish or cut the egg bonda into four pieces and place it in serving plate.(You can apply some chutney on top of egg bonda if you want) Garnish with onion,carrot,cilantro mix .Finally squeeze some lemon juice on top.Serve hot hot.

Tip:

* Instead of baking soda,we can add little Eno powder in batter to get pluffy bonda.
* We can use this batter for making aloo bonda,bajji too.
