Ingredients -
Mini Farfalle 1 cup (Or any pasta small in size)
Potato boiled and mashed 2 cups
Salt as per taste
Mirchi Powder 1/2 tsp (or as per taste)
Onion finely chopped 1/4 cup
Besan/Chick pea flour 1 cup
Ajwain/vaamu 1 tsp (optional)
Coriander leaves/Cilantro/Kothimeera chopped 3 Tbsp
Oil for deep frying
Made in Paniyaram/Ponganala penam
Method Of Preparation -
Boil the mini farfalle as per instructions on the box. Drain and keep aside.
In a mixing bowl, add the mashed potato, boiled mini farfalle, mirchi powder, salt, chopped onion and coriander leaves and mix them well mashing the pasta if required to get a dough like consistency.
Make balls out of the mixture and keep them covered.
Meanwhile prepare the besan batter adding water, ajwain and salt. Make sure the besan batter is not too runny.
Heat the oil in medium heat.
Gently drop the alu-pasta balls dipped in the besan batter one at a time and make sure the pan is not overcrowded.
Fry them until golden brown and repeat the process until the alu-pasta mixture is done!
We like to sprinkle a little Black salt (Kala Namak) on the bondas and some tomato ketchup by the side...yummy...some comfort food this is ...hmmm..

Very different recipe, looks very yummy. Perfect for this weather.
Hi Harini- There is really no mystery. Its just that Priya asked me to co-host this event with her. So you can post your recipes to this event either through Priya's site or through mine and they show up in both places (this magic is done my Mr. Linky). Again, you can link back to my site or to Priya's but it is best to mention both our names when linking back. Hope that help clarify. Take care and happy cooking.
