A great side for curry dishes. Does take a long time to make( 4 days drying time)but worth it.
Ingredients:
250 g potatoes
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/4 teaspoon chilli powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
salt
oil
Directions:
1. Cook the potatoes in their skins until tender then peel and mash
2. them thoroughly. Stir in the spices and divide into 14 equal
3. portions. Smear 1 large and 1 small plastic bag with oil and place
4. the large one on the work surface. Roll 1 portion of potato into
5. a ball, place on the plastic, cover with the other bag and roll it
6. into a 10 cm circle. Remove the small bag, smear it again with
7. oil and continue to roll out all the papadums. Leave exposed to
8. the air for 1 day to dry out.
9. Next day place the papadums on greased baking trays and place in the oven
10. about 30 cm above the pilot light. Leave for 3 days to dry out,
11. turning them every day. When dried, store in an airtight container.
12. Just before serving, heat the oil in a deep frying pan over a
13. medium-low heat. Gently slip a papadum into the hot oil and fry
14. for a few seconds until lightly browned on both sides. Serve hot
15. or at room temperature. Do not fry in advance otherwise the papadums will go soft.
