Boondi (No Added Salt)

Boondi are tiny, round, crunchy balls made by frying drops of gram flour batter, and they are used mainly in raita, chaat and Indian sweets. This boondi has no added salt, so you decide how much seasoning goes into your dish.

What Boondi Tastes and Feels Like

Boondi has a light, nutty taste from the gram flour (besan). Each ball is small, golden and crisp when dry. Because this boondi has no added salt, it tastes mild and plain on its own. That suits dishes that already bring their own salt, such as yoghurt with chaat masala or black salt.

Ways to Use Boondi

Boondi works in both savoury and sweet dishes. Here are the most common ways to use it at home:

  • Boondi raita, stirred into whisked yoghurt with roasted cumin and a little chilli
  • Topping for papdi chaat, dahi puri and other street-style snacks
  • Boondi laddu, where the boondi is soaked in sugar syrup and shaped into balls
  • A crunchy sprinkle over salads, cooked rice or plain yoghurt
  • An addition to homemade namkeen or snack mixes, seasoned the way you like

How to Make Boondi Raita

Boondi raita is easiest to make by soaking the boondi first. Put a small handful in a bowl of water for a few minutes until it turns soft. Squeeze out the water gently and stir the boondi into cold, whisked yoghurt.

Add ground roasted cumin, a pinch of red chilli powder and salt to taste. Many cooks add a little chaat masala or black salt as well. If you prefer some crunch, stir in dry boondi just before serving.

Boondi FAQ

Does boondi need soaking for raita?

Yes, a short soak of a few minutes softens boondi for raita. Skip the soak if you want it crunchy, and add it to the yoghurt at the last moment.

Can plain boondi be used for laddu?

Yes, plain boondi can be mixed with warm sugar syrup and shaped into laddu. Add cardamom, nuts or raisins if you like. Shape the laddu while the mixture is still warm.

Is boondi the same as sev?

No, boondi is made of small round drops, while sev is made of thin strands. Both are fried from gram flour batter and are used as toppings and in snack mixes.

You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect.
