Hello lovelies!! I’m sharing a super simple recipe with you all today. This Papad Salad Bowl with Green Chutney Vinaigrette is a real crowd pleaser, not only does it look incredible, but it tastes even better!
This recipe was inspired by your traditional taco bowl- but of course, I had to spice it up a bit. If you like a good tangy salad- this is definitely the one for you!
Those of you who aren’t familiar with what Papad is- its this super thin wafer-like Indian snack, typically made from lentil, chickpea, black gram, or rice flour. The dough can either be plain or seasoned with chilli, cumin, garlic, and/or black pepper. Typically They are shaped into a thin round flat wafer, dried (traditionally in the sun) and then cooked by either roasting, toasting, or sometimes deep fried. (YUM!)
Hope you guys give this recipe a try and as always- Happy Eating!!
