About
Papadum
One of my favourite appetizers is Papadum. It’s similar to a crispy tortilla but full of Indian spices.
There are many varieties of papad you can buy at the Indian food stores all across the lower mainland.
Some flavours are red chilli, green chilli and different varieties of lentils. Very yumm.
There are two ways that I cook this appetizer .One is the traditional way of frying it in oil and the other is cooking it on open flame.
I prefer cooking it over open flame as its less oily and healthier but you can decide for yourself.
Papadum is very crunchy, very flavourful and light .Sever on its own or with your main meals works either way :)
