Default Mangalore Bonda - Sponge comes a close second !

Maida - 1 cup

Rice flour - 3 tbsp

Bombay rava - 2 tbsp (use chiroti rava, if you have it)

Curds - 3/4 cup (or as given below)

Grren chillies - 4,5 (or to taste)

Coriander leaves, chopped - ¼ cup

Salt

Oil - to fry

Mix the three flours with salt & enough curds to idli dough consistency.

Rest for 5-6 hrs.

Add finely chopped green chillies & chopped coriander leaves.

If on soaking, the consistency has thickened slightly, add 1 or 2 tsp water.

Whisk the mixture well, simultaneously, keeping the oil on flame for deep frying.

Drop in spoonfuls & fry till done.

Transfer to an absorbent tissue to remove excess oil.

Since this absorbs a little more oil, change the tissue 2,3 times before you serve.

This way, excess oil is completely removed.

Serve hot with any chutney.
