How to Prepare
In a large mixing bowl, combine the soaked sabudana, mashed potatoes, grated carrot, chopped green chilies, ginger, coriander leaves, cumin seeds, salt, and crushed peanuts.
Mix well to form a uniform dough-like mixture. If the mixture is too wet, add a little rice flour to bind it.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat for frying.
Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into round balls (bondas).
Once the oil is hot, carefully drop the bondas into the oil in batches. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Fry the bondas on medium heat until they turn golden brown and crispy on all sides, turning occasionally for even cooking (about 5-7 minutes per batch).
Remove the bondas using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
