Poppadoms

A poppadom is basically a crispy round Indian bread that is eaten with Indian food (what else?). I bought a box of these at Ralphs, of all places, and basically watched each flat disk puff up into this fluffy crisps after about 45 seconds. They would have tasted better had I brushed some oil on them, or had I deep fried them, but the microwave worked just fine. Interestingly, the nutrition stats on these guys were pretty decent as far as being relatively low calories and high in fiber (the primary ingredient in these particular poppadums was black gram bean flour). My only complaint was that these were too salty!
