Ingredients

  • 15 g Papadum
  • 5 g Vegetable oil

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
  2. Slide the papadum into the hot oil and fry for just 5-10 seconds per side, pressing gently so it puffs and bubbles evenly.
  3. Lift it out as soon as it turns a shade darker and crisps up, since it burns quickly once it starts to colour.
  4. Drain briefly on paper towel and serve immediately while still crackling crisp, as a snack or alongside a curry.
