TRS Madras Plain Papad 200g

TRS Madras Plain Papad (long) refers to a variety of traditional Indian papadum that is elongated in shape, rather than round. Like the regular papad, it is made from a lentil or urad dal (black gram) flour base, seasoned with salt and a touch of spices. This variant is popular in South India, particularly in Tamil Nadu, where it is known as appalam or papadam and served as an accompaniment to meals.
Key Details:
Shape: The „long“ variant of papad is not round but elongated, which gives it a distinct look on the plate. It’s still thin and crunchy, and can be roasted or fried.
Ingredients:
Primary ingredient: Urad dal (black gram flour), which gives it a slightly nutty flavor.
Additional ingredients: Salt, cumin, black pepper, and sometimes hing (asafoetida), depending on the recipe.
Preparation: These papads are typically dry and need to be roasted over an open flame or fried in oil to become crispy. Roasting gives a slightly healthier option, while frying makes them extra crunchy.
Serving: Papads are typically served with rice dishes like sambar or rasam, or eaten as a snack with chutneys or dips. In Tamil cuisine, it is an essential side for lunch meals.
Brand: TRS is a well-known brand offering quality papads, including these Madras Plain Papads, which can often be found in Indian grocery stores or online.
