Tips for making Potato Bonda:

  1. If the batter is too thin, it will not coat the filling. We can adjust by adding more gram flour.
  2. If the batter is too thick, outer cover will be so thick and it will dominate than the filling. Adjust by sprinkling water little.
  3. Adding Baking Soda is optional. Baking soda makes the bondages puff up a little but if you add baking soda, we have to finish the batter immediately. Do not keep the batter in refrigerator or it will become watery and will not coat the filling.
  4. If you like the dark orange color of the outer cover use kashmiri red chili instead of regular red chili.
  5. Deep fry the bonda in low flame till they are golden brown.
