Our range of pakodas and bondas is proof of our love for everything fried. Bonda is a deep-fried snack that can be both sweet and savoury. The most popular kind of Bonda is the ‘Aloo Bonda’, in which a spicy potato mixture is dipped in a besan batter and deep-fried until golden. This recipe of this round and robust snack also finds mention in the 12th century Sanskrit text ‘Manosallassa’ as ‘Parika’, the text was compiled by King Someshvara III, who ruled present-day Karnataka. Aloo Bonda or Mysore Bonda may be the most popular Bonda there is but there are many interesting versions of the snack that are worthy of equal hype and attention. Here are some of our favourites.
