About Papadam
Papadam is a thin, crisp flatbread originating from South Indian cuisine, often served as a snack or accompaniment to meals. Traditionally made from black gram flour (urad dal), lentils, chickpea flour, or rice flour, it is typically seasoned with spices like cumin, black pepper, or chili flakes for extra flavor. Papadams are gluten-free and offer a modest amount of protein and fiber, depending on the ingredients used. While they are usually fried for maximum crunch, healthier alternatives include roasting or microwaving to reduce oil intake. Papadam can be enjoyed on its own, paired with chutneys, or crumbled over dishes for texture. However, fried versions can be high in fats and calories, making moderation key for those watching their dietary intake. Its versatility and quick preparation make it beloved worldwide, especially in Indian households and restaurants.
