Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Mixing the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine urad dal flour, rice flour, cumin seeds, black pepper, and salt. Gradually add water while mixing to form a smooth dough.

  2. 2

    Resting the Dough

    Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Rolling the Papads

    Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into thin discs using a rolling pin, dusting with rice flour to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Drying the Papads

    Place the rolled papads on a clean surface or a drying rack and let them dry in the sun for a few hours until completely dry.

  5. 5

    Frying the Papads

    In a deep frying pan, heat oil on medium heat. Fry the dried papads one at a time until they puff up and turn golden brown. Remove and drain excess oil on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serving

    Serve the crispy chote papads as a snack or appetizer with chutney or salsa.
