Maida Bonda is a traditional and delicious evening snack served in most of the restaurants in south India (Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka.) Usually, Bonda's are made using vegetable like potatoes, but Myda Bonda is very light and made just using the flour. This tasty bonda can be served along with Coffee or we can also serve with Idly/ dosa etc. Coconut chutney is one of the best accompaniment for Myda bonda.
Myda Bonda is a fried dumpling made with Maida (all-purpose flour), rice flour, curd and spices. They are crispy outside and fluffy inside. A very easy to make and a tasty snack.
Mysore Bonda is often confused with Urid dal Bonda. In Tamil Nadu, we commonly make Bonda using Urad Dal instead of all-purpose flour. But Mysore bonda will always be made using all-purpose flour.
