Ingredients:

  • 8 Pappads (uncooked poppadoms)
  • Stuffing:
  • 1 tbsp Groundnut oil

Method:

To make the stuffing, heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion, garlic, ginger and black pepper and fry gently until the onion is soft and translucent. Add the ground coriander, turmeric and prawns and fry for 3-4 minutes.
