To make urad dal bonda, clean, wash and soak the urad dal in enough water in a deep bowl for atleast 2 hours. Drain well.

Blend in a mixer to a smooth paste, adding approx. 2 tbsp of water.

Transfer the mixture into a deep bowl, add all the remaining ingredients and mix well.

Heat the oil in a deep non-stick kadhai, drop big spoonfuls of the mixture in hot oil and deep-fry a few at a time on a medium flame, till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Drain on absorbent paper.

Serve the urad dal bonda immediately.
