Yum, Yum, Pappadum #weekendcooking @bethfishreads

Inspired by these two cookbooks and my shopping trip to the Indian grocery store, I made a few Indian-inspired meals recently. I had fun frying up pappodum to go with the meal, so I thought I’d share a little video for anyone who doesn’t know what it looks like.

Q:What is pappodum or papadum?
A: Lightly spiced fried yummy things made from lentil flour or other bean flours.

You can buy them readymade. Maybe I’ll try making my own someday.

Check out Madhur Jaffrey’s professional video on cooking papadum here:

Here’s the Indian-inspired meal we had the pappadum with:

Easy Vegetable Dal made with red lentils (from Everyday Gluten-Free Slow Cooking by Kimberly Mayone & Kitty Broihier) served over basmati rice (used white beans instead of chickpeas in the dal because that’s what I had on hand)

Happy Weekend Cooking!
