Masala Papad Recipe
Masala Papad is an easy starter recipe which can be made with deep fried papad or roasted papad. This is normally made with deep fried papads topped with tangy and spicy mixed vegetables. This is my favorite crispy starter recipe as it needs very less time and can be made in a jiffy specially when you have unexpected guests at home.
Servings 4 Papad
Ingredients
- 4 papads preferably garlic papads
- ½ medium sized onion finely chopped
- ½ medium sized tomato finely chopped
- ½ yellow or green capsicum finely chopped
- ½ cup grated carrot
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- Few Coriander leaves for garnish
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala
- To taste salt
- 2 cups oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Deep fry the papads in sufficient oil. Remove and drain them on a tissue paper.
- In a mixing bowl, add finely chopped onion, finely chopped tomato, finely chopped capsicum and grated carrot.
- Add lemon juice and salt to taste.
- Take 2 tablespoon of the above vegetable mixture and spread it on the deep fried papads.
- Sprinkle red chili powder, chat masala and chopped coriander leaves on this and serve immediately.
Notes
Instead of sprinkling the red chili powder and chaat masala, you can mix it in the vegetable mix and top on the papad too. I simply used it as a garnish as the little one does not like very spicy stuff.
