Potato Bonda or urulaikizhangu bonda is a popular fried snack in Tamilnadu.I prefer this bonda than the ulundu bonda simply because it has potato stuffing inside and it is more tastier than the other one.Howevery my mom used to like only the mysore bonda or the ulundu bonda for which i will post the recipe soon.I have had this bonda in so many weddings as evening snack but when made it at home it is so tasty!!!!!!If you have boiled potatoes ready you can make it in a jiffy!!!

Notes
- Adding Lemon juice is optional but it adds a tangy taste to the potato.
- The batter should be thick to get round shaped bondas.
- You can make the potato stuffing (balls) and keep it in the refrigerator and fry when guests come to make it easy.
- I used Aachi Bajji bonda mavu and it came out very well as you can see in the picture.
