Cabbage bonda is very teasty, when you eat it hot. I got this recipe from the road side vada shop. There is shop nearby the hostel I stayed. We all friends used to go here get this bonda often. The red color and soft texture of this cabbage bonda is appetizing.In that tea shop the man used to prepare the cabbage bonda in the evening, within few hours everything will be sold.
