does any body have a recipe for making popadoms???? i cant find one,and would love to make my own.thanks

In Madhur Jaffreys - A Taste of India , it says they're bought partially prepared so I don't think it's something you can start from scratch at home.

hi knocker,
the answer to your question, is that it takes years of practice to make popadoms at home.the actual method of making them is very skilful.

Knocker, I doubt you will be able to make popadoms at home as I believe that they the dough is sun dried. you can buy them dirt cheap in Asian supermarkets and they are quite simple to prepare. Heat som oil in a deep pan, brush off any dust from the popadom and deep fry for about 15 seconds. Shake off the excess oil and stand upright on kitchen towel in a meat ti to allow them to drain. I then place them in a low oven for about 30 mins. they will then keep for weeks in an airtight container. if they do go a bit soft then just stick them back in the oven for 20 minutes or so. To get an airtight container big enough ask you local take away for an empty ghee container, generally big enough to hold 20 popadoms.

thanks everyone i think i will buy them?
