One serving has 100 kcal and 4 g protein. Ready in 5 minutes.

- Preparation: 2 min
- Cooking: 3 min
- Makes: 1 serving (20 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegan, Dairy-free, Low carb
- Contains: gluten
Ingredients
- 15 g Papadum
- 5 g Vegetable oil
Method
- Heat the oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
- Slide the papadum into the hot oil and fry for just 5-10 seconds per side, pressing gently so it puffs and bubbles evenly.
- Lift it out as soon as it turns a shade darker and crisps up, since it burns quickly once it starts to colour.
- Drain briefly on paper towel and serve immediately while still crackling crisp, as a snack or alongside a curry.
