As someone else mentioned in the comments, using a flat hand grater is one option...but you might end up with tear-drop sized boondis, which will be difficult to bind as a circle. Yet another option, altho time consuming one, is to use a mehndi cone or pastry cone to drop one by one into the hot oil.<br /> <br />I bought mine at a desi store here..hope you can find one near yours...or else experiment one of the above and let me know! :)@http://www.blogger.com/profile/03887052887207435095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35557845.post-37726929393454419162006-12-21T09:36:00.000-06:002006-12-21T09:36:00.000-06:00what if you don't have boondi maker? can regular one with holes will do?mommyof2http://www.blogger.com/profile/00731469776192393017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35557845.post-49320084285992330742006-10-30T13:37:00.000-06:002006-10-30T13:37:00.000-06:00Menu today: welcome and thanks!<br /><br />Indira: welcome! And I have my MIL to thank for making these.<br /><br />Jayashree: welcome...actually, this is exactly what I suggested to my mom, two Diwalis ago, when I didn't have the boondi plate. But she flat out refused to use a grater or anything else...because for her, it had to be done the old-fashioned way, with the old-fashioned tools! Which is why I ran out and got this :)@http://www.blogger.com/profile/03887052887207435095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35557845.post-10789932339980718932006-10-30T13:32:00.000-06:002006-10-30T13:32:00.000-06:00The laddoos look really good and the colour is superb. When my mom was here visiting me she made boondi using a grater 'coz i don't have a ladle. Haven't ever tried it myself, though.Jayashreehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16728565295970195658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35557845.post-4197210870439857892006-10-25T10:52:00.000-06:002006-10-25T10:52:00.000-06:00Hi @,<br /><br />Belated shubha Deepavali wishes to you and your family.<br /><br />Laddus are one of my favorite sweet and happy to see such a classic sweet for JFI- Diwali event.
