Ingredients
- 1 cup besan flour (chickpea flour)
- ½ cup rice flour
- 1 pinch cooking soda
- ¼ teaspoon asafetida
- 1 ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground pepper
- water as required
- ½ cup peanuts
- 3 prigs curry leaves
- 4 whole garlic cloves with skin crushed
- oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Sieve chickpea flour, rice flour together. In a bowl add the flour, salt, pepper powder, asafetida, cooking soda and mix. Add water little at a time, whisk to form a batter that is slightly thick and is of pouring consistency.
- Heat oil in a kadai for deep frying. Once oil in hot, reduce flame to medium.
- Into the oil add peanuts and fry till they start to turn brown. Next add curry leaves and crushed garlic cloves and wait they crisp up.
- Let’s fry the boondis in the same oil. The flavor of garlic and curry leaves that went into the oil will flavor up the boondis as well.
- Hold a slotted spatula over the hot oil and pour the batter on top of the slotted spatula little at a time. The batter should flow down the spatula holes easily into hot oil. Wait till all batter falls down through the hole, then pour another ladle full of batter over the slotted spatula and wait for it to fall down into the hot oil. Wait for all the boondis inside the oil to get cooked and turn crispy. The color once turned golden yellow remove the fried boondi from oil onto a kitchen paper.
- Before repeating the next batch of frying boondis wipe clean the remaining batter sticking to the slotted spatula including the whole. Then pour the next batch and fry them the same way. Do this step till all the batter is fried.
- Mix boondi, peanuts, curry leaves, garlic. Let it cool completely. Store in air tight container and enjoy it with your tea in the evening or munch on anytime :D These are totally addictive!!
