Thanks for this tip.

Aarthii, try with kasuri methi next time... only then u'll get it close to restaurent ones... even for other northie curries(all butter masalas, tadaka dhal, kadai dishes, aloo mutter, channa etc) u add it towards the end...but some don't like its flavour...so try it and see if u like it...

Suvai, ungga post romba suvaiyaai irrukku:-D
Thanks Suvai for your beautiful post.

Do not worry, I am taking life very easy.
Only that I cannot sit very long time in front of the pc.
My legs start to swell. That too will go away I believe.

Thanks Suvai, please visit when you are free.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

My niece called from India to tell me the recipe for Maha Rusi Bonda.
I have heard about potato bonda, but maha rusi bonda:roll:
Well here is her recipe, nothing great to shout ha,ha ho, ho.
Nice snack for the evening. Kugan98



MAHA RUSI BONDA

Ingredients:

2 potatoes boiled and mashed fine

To Grind Coarsely:
2 green chillies
2 tbs grated coconut
½ tsp ginger
½ tsp garlic
1 cardamom pod
1 clove

1 big onion chopped and fried till golden in little oil
¼ cup pottukadalai flour
1 tsp dry chillie flakes
1 tbs curds
Little cashew nuts chopped
A pinch of turmeric powder
Little lemon juice if needed
Salt to taste

Little rice flour enough to bind all the ingredients
Oil for deep frying

Method:
Boil and mash the potatoes.
Grind the ingredients into a coarse paste.

Now mix all the ingredients, except the oil to form a soft batter.
It should be like our methu vada batter.
Heat the oil in a wok.
When it is hot, drop in small round balls of the batter.
Cook on medium heat till they become golden brown.
Remove and put them on kitchen papers.
Serve hot with chillie sauce, tomato sauce or any chutney.
