Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup potatoes pieces
  • 1.5 cup rice flour
  • 2 cup water
  • Salt to taste
  • ½ tsp papad khar
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  • Take 1 large potato, peel it, and cut it into pieces. Wash the potato pieces with water to remove excess starch. Add the pieces to a mixer jar and grind them into a smooth paste.
  • Take out the potato paste into a cup. You should get 1 cup of potato paste.
  • Now, in a pan, sieve 1 cup of potato paste. Add 2 cups of water and mix well. Stir continuously and cook the mixture until it becomes transparent and reaches a ribbon-like, medium-thick consistency.
  • Then add ½ tsp papad khar and 1 tsp salt. Mix well.
  • Now add 1½ cups of rice flour and mix properly. Cook the mixture until it binds well and starts leaving the sides of the pan.
  • Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Add a little oil, press it slightly, and make it smooth.
  • Take a portion of the mixture and shape it into a roll.
  • Preheat the steamer for 5 minutes. Place the rolls in the steamer and steam them for 15 minutes on high flame until fully cooked.
  • Take out the steamed mixture onto a plate and smooth it using plastic while it is still warm.
  • Make small dough balls and keep the remaining dough covered. Make sure the mixture is slightly hot while rolling the papad.
  • Take a plastic sheet and grease it with oil. Place a dough ball on it, cover it with another plastic sheet, and roll it into a thin papad. You can also use a papad maker.
  • If you do not want to roll papad, put the mixture into a sev maker machine and make flat (patti-style) papad. Cut them into pieces.
  • Dry the papad in sunlight for 2 days and store them in an airtight container.
  • Batata papad is ready. Fry and serve.
