Mysore Bonda Recipe (Healthy Pan Fried Recipe)

Step 1: To begin making the Mysore Bonda Recipe, soak the urad dal completely immersed in water for about 2 hours

Step 2: Once the dal is soaked, get the remaining ingredients ready and the Kuzhi Paniyaram Pan ready as well

Step 3: Drain all the excess water from the urad dal and grind it along with the green chilli adding very little water to make a smooth and yet thick bonda batter

Step 4: Transfer the bonda batter into a large mixing bow, add the pounded peppercorns, salt, asafoetida and coriander leaves

Step 5: Check the salt levels and adjust to suit your taste

Step 6: Preheat the Kuzhi Paniyaram Pan; add a teaspoon of oil into each of the cavities

Step 7: Spoon the Mysore Bonda batter into each of the cavities and fill it 3/4th way through

Step 8: Cover the pan and allow the top of the bonda's to steam and cook through

Step 9: Once you notice the top of the bonda's are cooked through, then uncover the pan

Step 10: From this stage onwards we will pan fry the bonda's in open

Step 11: Flip the bonda's to cook on the other side

Step 12: You can optionally add more oil to make the bonda's more crisp and browned evenly from all sides

Step 13: Serve the Mysore Bonda's along with Coconut Chutney as a tea time snack along with a hot cup of coffee
