HOMEMADE POPPADOMS
Steps:
- Place the flour in a mixing bowl and stir in the salt andbicarbonate of soda. Slowly add the water, you may not need it all, to form into a soft dough. The dough should be slightly wet and a little difficult to work with.
- Place this dough on a clean surface and pound it with a pestle or something similar for about 10 minutes, flipping the dough from time to time. This s the authentic way of making the dough, which gets better results than simply kneading as the flour is pounded harder together.
- After about ten minutes of pounding, you are ready to knead the dough. Squish and squeeze it in your hands for a couple of minutes. If the dough is still quite wet, add a little flour until you have a very soft and drydough ball. You shouldn't need to add much. If you have a tortilla press, your job of flattening the papads will be much easier. Otherwise, you will need to roll your dough balls out until paper thin on a lightly greased surface. You will need a knife to help remove the papad fro the surface. For a neater appearance, you could also use a round cookie cutter to but I rarely do.
- Dry the flattened papads in the sun, flipping from time to time on wax paper. In the winter, I place them next to a wood fire or electric heater to dry. I have also dried them in a dehydrator.
- When dried out, the papads will still be a bit flexible and not so dry that they snap in two when bent.
- To cook, heat about 10cm/4inches of vegetable oil in a wok or large pan. The oil is hot enough when you can throw a small piece of papad in and it sizzles and floats to the top immediately.
- Cook one or two at a time. They should cook through in a matter of seconds so watch them carefully so that you don't burn them. Transfer the cooked poppadoms to papertowels using tongs and continue cooking the remaining poppadoms.
- These cooked poppadoms will keep in an air-tight container for at least three days.
PAPADAMS
Found this recipe on the Net in response to a request. Here's what the recipe said: "Papadams are delicious, spicy Indian crackers that traditionally require many ingredients and take days to make. They are prepared ahead in quantity and deep fried just before serving. This is a simplified version. It still requires time, but the results are worth it. It is not the easiest of reci

Steps:
- Stir together the flour, pepper, ground cumin seed, and salt in a large bowl or in the food processor; mix thoroughly until the spices are evenly distributed.
- Add the garlic and mix well.
- Add enough of the water to form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball; if necessary, add up to 1 additional tablespoon water.
- The dough should be fairly stiff and dry; if it is too wet, it will not roll well.
- Knead the dough for about 5 minutes by hand or pulse for about 15 seconds in the food processor; the dough should be smooth.
- With your hands, shape the dough into a cylinder or log about 2 inches thick and 6 inches long.
- With a sharp knife, cut the cylinder into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- The next step uses oil, so do not use your pastry cloth and rolling pin sleeve.
- Place each slice on a lightly oiled surface.
- Lightly oil the top of the slice and then roll out into a very thin circle about 6 or 7 inches in diameter.
- Papadams must be rolled extremely thin, maximum 1/16 inch.
- If the dough sticks to your rolling pin, gently pull it off.
- Dust the tops of each papadam with cayenne pepper.
- Using a metal spatula to loosen the edges of the papadams from the rolling surface, carefully place them on large baking sheets.
- The traditional method for preparing and frying papadams is described below; you can also bake them in a 300F oven for about 15 to 25 minutes, or until crisp and dry.
- The cooking time may vary beyond this range depending upon the thickness and moisture in the rolled dough.
- Cool them on a rack.
- To prepare the papadams in an authentic manner, don't bake them; first allow them to dry by leaving them in the sun for a few hours or by placing them in a very low oven (less than 200F) for 1 to 2 hours, turning occasionally.
- Dry the papadams until they are just slightly flexible and show no moisture; they should not brown or bake, however.
- At this point, the papadams may be stacked flat and stored in an airtight container until needed; they will keep for months if stored properly.
- When ready to serve, heat about 1/8 inch of oil in a large skillet; the oil should be hot, but not smoking; a drop of water flicked into the skillet should sizzle immediately.
- One at a time, drop the papadams into the hot oil.
- Turn the papadam when it begins to curl at the edges; it will quickly fry and become crisp.
- Remove it before it turns brown.
- Cool and drain the papadams on paper towels and eat them immediately.
