Kodubale (Spicy Rings)

Kodubale is my all time favorite snack. I always like the spicy kodubales available in Bangalore. My uncle used to get me kodubales whenever he visited us. Ahh!! those were the days. 
Few years back, me and my amma thought- why not try making these kodubales. I had a recipe (from a magazine). So we made it and the kodubale didn't turn crispy:( This brought down my enthu and never tried making it again. Few months back, one of my good friends S made these kodubales for a get together, which tasted awesome. So took this recipe from him the very next day. I impressed my in- laws with these kodubales:-) Decide whom you want to impress:-) 
Making these kodubale is time consuming, but at the end you will surely get paid with love!
