About Masala papad

Masala Papad is a popular Indian appetizer or snack made from crisp fried or roasted papad (thin lentil or chickpea flour wafers) topped with a vibrant mix of vegetables and spices. Common toppings include diced tomatoes, onions, fresh coriander leaves, green chilies, and a sprinkle of tangy chaat masala. Sometimes lemon juice is added for extra zing. Originating from Indian cuisine, this dish is prized for its crunchiness and burst of flavors. On the healthier side, Masala Papad offers a dose of vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants from the fresh vegetables. However, the deep-fried papad base can be high in oil content, which might not be ideal for heart health or calorie-conscious diets. Opting for a roasted version can significantly lower fat content, making it a more nutritious choice. This quick and flavorful dish is often enjoyed as a light snack or starter.
