We all have our favorite dishes and cuisines. Today, I am gonna tell you, about something, without which I find my lunch and dinner incomplete that is Papad. It enhances the taste of the food it is accompanying. It is thin, crispy, disc-shaped snack and can be prepared from flours like potato, urad dal or split white gram, masoor or red lentil, chickpeas, rice, soyabean, etc. It can be eaten by deep-frying and roasting. But, I personally like eating it roasted as it is oil-free, fat-free and doesn't increase cholesterol level. Sometimes to add flavor to it, the topping is done with onions, tomatoes and condiments.
