(Crisp Indian Wafers) Pappadams, Indian wafers usually made from lentils, can be fried or broiled. When fried they become bubbly and more enlarged than when broiled. The tandoori-flavored ones are beet red. To maintain crispness, pappadams should be served within 1 hour of being cooked. 12 sun-dried pappadams* (Indian wafers, sometimes called papads) in assorted flavors such as tandoori and Madras-spiced about 5 cups vegetable oil if frying *available at East Indian markets, some specialty foods shops To fry pappadams: In a heavy kettle heat 1 1/2 inches oil over moderate heat until it registers 365° F. on a deep-fat thermometer and fry pappadams until crisp and golden, 2 or 3 seconds. With tongs transfer pappadams to paper towels to drain briefly. To broil pappadams: Preheat broiler.
