Bread bonda!

It was a cold Friday evening and bread bonda was the right snack with the usual evening coffee.
This snack is a bit time taking if you have to make the potato filling, in any case if  there was Potato filling and bread at home, this snack can be made in a jiffy.









Ingredients:
  • Potatoes: 3 medium potatoes.
  • Onion: 1 small onion.
  • Green Chillies: 2-3 chillies.
  • Oil: few teaspoon.
  • Chana dhal: 1 teaspoon
  • Cumin: 1 teaspoon.
  • Mustard seed: 1 teaspoon.
  • Turmeric: 1/2 teaspoon.
  • Bread:few slices.
  • Water.
  • Oil to fry.
  • Salt.


Method:

To make the filling:

  • First of all boil the peeled potatoes untill they are soft and keep aside 
  • Cool them and smash into chunks.
  • Chop  the onions and chillies.
  • In a pan add oil, once the oil is hot add Mustard seeds, Cumin seeds one after the other.
  • Let the seeds splatter, add the Chana dhal as the dhal turns lightly brown add the onions and chillies and fry. Add the turmeric powder and salt mix well.
  • Lastly add the smashed potatoes, and mix well with the rest of the mixture.
  • The filling is done.            
The outer coat:
Take the bread slices and cut the tough edges.

Slightly dampen the bread with little spray of water to make it pliable.
Keep the filling in the centre and try to cover the filling with the bread completely.

Heath the oil and deep fry the bondas in the oil till they are golden brow.
Enjoy the crispy outer soft insde bondas! Yummy.
