Naturally
gluten-free, Pappadums are thin lentil chips and probably the
most commonly eaten Indian food around the world. Pappadums are
dried to preserve flavor and fried in hot oil, which almost magically
transforms them into light, crispy puffs of uniquely shaped chips.
Pappadums are best served with chutneys and relishes.
We
tried two of Pataks Pappadums flavaors; Black Peppercorn
and Garlic.
Black
Peppercorn Pappadums:
Ingredients:
Lentil
flour, rice flour, salt, tapioca starch, black pepper, spices,
sunflower oil, sodium bicarbonate.
Pappadums
have a wonderful flavor and texture and are great fun to prepare.
They literally grow before your eyes when placed into hot oil.
The Black Pepper flavor was our favorite and adds a nice peppery
flavor to the light chip.
Garlic
Pappadums:
Ingredients:
Lentil
flour, rice flour, salt, tapioca starch, garlic, spices, chile
pepper, sunflower oil, sodium bicarbonate.
Garlic
Pappadums have a light garlic flavor which enhances the lentil
chip instead of overwhelming it. A little less versatile as far
as what condiment you match with it.
