Punugulu is a very famous Andhra snack.
But it is made with idli batter and maida. Since maida is not that much healthy
I tried this wheat flour. It is one our favourite snack of my Sithi who
prepares it every now and then.
Ingredients:
|
1 cup
|
Wheat Flour
|
¼ cup
|
Finely Chopped Onion
|
¼ cup
|
Chopped Green Chilly
|
2
|
Curry leaves
|
1 spring
|
Coriander Leaves
|
Handful
|
Cumin Seeds
|
1 tbsp
|
Salt
|
As required
|
Oil
|
For deep fry
|
Procedure:
1. Mix idly batter and wheat flour with
salt.
2. Then add cumin seeds, finely chopped
onion, chopped green chillies, chopped coriander and curry leaves.
3. Mix them well. If the batter is too thick you can add little
amount of water or if the batter is not thick you can add wheat flour to bring
the batter into a thick consistency. The batter should be thicker than idli
batter (the batter should fall as a ball).
4. Heat the oil in a pan, wet the hands
with water and drop a gooseberry size balls from the batter.
5. Fry them well on all sides till they
becomes golden in color and crisp.
6. Take it out from the oil and drain
the oil completely. Then keep it on the kitchen tissue paper to absorb the
excess oil.
Have this instant and crispy bonda with tea.
Note:
1.Instead of wheat flour you can try
with maid, millet flours etc..
