Masala Papad is an ideal starter recipe. This is my favorite to make starter as it needs very less time and can be made in a jiffy. I had masala papad first in my childhood at a restaurant and ever since then I loved them. We never made this recipe at home, but whenever mom made deep fried papads, I asked her to make salad. I simply topped the salad over the papad and loved to have it. I would top any type of salad on top of papad and eat. I still do it and hence comes today’s recipe.
During previous vacation to Goa while returning to Bangalore from Goa, we halted at Shiv Shakti Palace hotel in Haveri overnight. It was one of the best places to stay in Haveri and the same place had a restaurant. The restaurant had the best food in town. We ordered masala papad there and then I realized that this simple recipe is not present on my blog. Hence I am sharing this recipe with you all. Hope you love it.
Masala papad is another way in which you can ensure that you child eats some vegetables in the form of salad which is topped on papad. You can cut the papad into squares or triangles or any shapes before deep frying them. Also use garlic, black pepper or chili flavored papads.
Ingredients: Makes 4 Masala Papads, Serves 4
4 papads preferably garlic papads
½ medium onion, finely chopped
½ tomato, finely chopped
½ yellow or green capsicum, finely chopped
½ cup grated carrot
2 tablespoon lemon juice
Coriander leaves for garnish
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon chat masala
Salt to taste
Oil for deep frying
Procedure:
1) Deep fry the papads in sufficient oil. Remove and drain them on a tissue paper.
2) Mix finely chopped onion, finely chopped tomato, finely chopped capsicum and grated carrot together.
3) Add lemon juice and salt to taste.
4) Take 2 tablespoon of the above vegetable mixture and spread it on the deep fried papads.
5) Sprinkle red chili powder, chat masala and coriander seeds on this and serve immediately.
