Diwali is all about celebration, fun, family with good food. Every occasion is made great with the food that we include as a part of our celebration. While Murukku, ribbon pakoda, and other dry snacks are made in advance for the festival, most of the households have the practice of making a snack on Diwali day. If you are a south-Indian it might be a bajji, vadai or bonda. As many of us avoid deep-fried stuff, here is one healthy and low-calorie version of our favorite bonda. Potato Bonda is everyone’s favorite. However, replacing that with Sweet potato and using an appam pan to cook it makes it a guilt-free snack.
Sweet Potato is one root vegetable that is available almost throughout the year. It has more fiber and beta carotene – a good source of Vitamin A that helps in bone health and eyesight. A very few drops of cooking Oil are used in this recipe making it happy to indulge. Do try out these easy, guilt-free bondas for this Diwali, and thank me later.
