After 5 hours, drain the beans and blend them until smooth and thick, adding 2 tablespoons of water if necessary.

Check the batter consistency; it should be smooth and not watery.

Add chopped onions, chili peppers, and coriander leaves to the batter.

Mix in 1 teaspoon of salt.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat.

Carefully drop the batter into the hot oil.

Fry for 2 minutes on medium flame, then flip the bara and fry for another 2 minutes until golden brown.

Serve hot and crispy.
