Onion Papad 100g

Onion papad, also known as pyaz ki papad, is a popular Indian snack made from a mixture of onions, spices, and lentil flour. Papads are thin, crispy discs that are typically deep-fried or roasted until they become light and crunchy.

To make onion papad, finely chopped onions are mixed with spices like cumin, coriander, red chili powder, and salt. This mixture is then combined with lentil flour (usually urad dal flour or moong dal flour) to form a dough. The dough is rolled out into thin circles or discs and left to dry in the sun or under a fan until they become firm.

Traditionally, papads are dried in the sun, but in modern times, commercial manufacturers often use mechanical dryers to speed up the process. Once the papads are dry, they can be stored for a long time and fried or roasted whenever desired.

To prepare onion papads for consumption, they are usually deep-fried in hot oil until they puff up and turn golden brown. Alternatively, you can also roast them on a tawa (flat griddle) or in the oven until they become crispy. The fried or roasted onion papads are then served as a snack or as an accompaniment to a meal. They are often enjoyed with chutneys, pickles, or yogurt.

Onion papads provide a delightful crunch and a burst of flavor from the onions and spices. They are a popular snack in many parts of India and are often served during festivals, special occasions, or as an appetizer in restaurants.
