Steps

45 minutes

1

First, make the bondas. Soak the urad dal for 3-4 hours. Grind it in a blender until smooth. Whisk the batter well. Add chopped coconut, black pepper, green chilies, chopped ginger, and a few curry leaves. Mix well, then fry spoonfuls of the batter in hot oil until golden brown.
2

To make the soup, use moong dal and tomatoes. Rinse the moong dal and add it to a pressure cooker. Add chopped tomatoes, salt, turmeric, and a little oil. Cook until the dal is soft and keep the consistency slightly thin.
3

Prepare the tempering for the dal. Heat oil in a pan, add chopped ginger, then mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Add curry leaves, then pour this tempering into the cooked dal. To serve, place a few bondas in a bowl and pour the hot soup over them. Your healthy Bonda Soup is ready to serve.
