Masala Papad

Name: Masala Papad (Poppadoms)
Cuisine: Indian
Ingredients: Brush a little water on to both sides of the papad and microwave in 20 second bursts. Turn over each time so it’s evenly cooked.; Heat a little oil in a shallow frying pan. When it reaches about 180°C, gently place in the papad which should fluff up. Use tongs to keep it as flat as you can, as it will naturally curl up.; Take a pair of metal tongs and use them to toast your papad over an open flame. Hold it over the flame for a few seconds, working your way around until all the raw bits are puffed up and evenly toasted, and then flip it to cook the other side.
