Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1

   In a bowl combine chickpea flour, whole wheat flour, cumin seeds, fennel seeds (if using), turmeric, red chili powder, and salt.

2. 2

   Add water gradually and knead into a smooth, non‑sticky dough.

3. 3

   Divide dough into 4 equal balls and roll each ball into a thin circle (about 12‑15 cm diameter) using a rolling pin.

4. 4

   Place the rolled papad on a microwave‑safe plate, brush lightly with olive oil spray on both sides.

5. 5

   Microwave on high for 1‑2 minutes until the papad puffs up and turns golden, or alternatively roast on a dry skillet over medium heat, turning frequently.

6. 6

   Serve immediately with a low‑glycemic chutney such as coriander‑mint yogurt dip.
