MYSORE BONDA(using maida)

I tasted this Mysore  Bonda two years back when I went for  my nephew's wedding at Bangalore.  We were  staying in an apartment and my daughter was very  hungry.Though we were new to that place, myself and my daughter ventured out and saw  a snack counter nearby.  

When asked what is there to eat, the shop keeper said mysore bonda and tea/coffee is available.  When we saw him serving the hot bonda  and coffee/tea, we decided to order  that only.

To my surprise, it was awesome as I never tasted the maida version of bonda as I was familiar  with only Ulundu bonda.

This is a Karnataka special snack item which is paired with coconut chutney. For a change, you can indulge in such items  as now a days most people avoid usage of maida. This items should be prepared bit spicy then only we can really enjoy the taste of it.
