How to cook it
- Roast each papad directly over a low flame or in a toaster, turning often, until it crisps and blisters all over.
- Break into pieces and serve right away as a crunchy side.

Safe at your table
Dinejot tracks ten allergens and tags every one of them by hand. Roasted Papad carries none of them. That is a checked answer rather than an ingredient list nobody read.
| Allergen | In this dish | Cook this instead |
|---|---|---|
| Peanuts | No | |
| Tree nuts | No | |
| Dairy | No | |
| Gluten | No | |
| Shellfish | No | |
| Eggs | No | |
| Soy | No | |
| Fish | No | |
| Sesame | No | |
| Coconut | No |
These tags are set by a person rather than inferred from an ingredient list, and they describe the recipe as written here. Read the labels on whatever you actually buy.
