Papad Samosas | Gluten free with a Shrimp Filling | Kravings

If you’ve ever been to Goa and eaten at a beach shack, you’ve definitely had this delectable snack. Crispy pappadum stuffed with a Shrimp Chilly fry filling, rolled, sealed and fried. Papads or Pappaadums are made from a lentil flour paste that was traditionally dried in the sun by the ladies of the household. Today these are available in a wide variety of flavors and sizes. The best kind for this snack is the type that does not have any holes that will let the filling out and the oil in. Although Shrimp is the most popular, you can really use anything to stuff your papads. Think of it as a desi spring roll and speaking of desi, I decided to take this recipe and convert it into a portable easy to eat snack - the famous Samosa! I also have an alternate way to cook this in the microwave which will delight people avoiding fried foods!
Here are the ingredients and steps to make this recipe!
Papad Samosas
Oil
1/2 cup small cubed Potatoes
1/2 cup diced Onion
1 tsp sliced green Chillies
300 gms raw Shrimp, chopped
Salt to taste
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tsp Cumin powder
1/2 Turmeric powder
1/2 cup chopped Coriander
12 - 14 Papads
Heat a little Oil and add the Potatoes, cook it and keep it aside
Add the Onion, let it sweat and caramelize then add the Chillies
Add the Shrimp, add a little more Oil if required, Salt to taste and the spice powders
Once the Shrimp is cooked, add the Potato and the Coriander and allow the filling to cool
Mix and allow the filling to cool down completely
Soak the pad in warm Water till it gets soft and pliable
Lay it on a board and dab it with kitchen towels to try the papad
Add 2 tsps of the filling in the centre but a bit towards the top of the Papad
Fold the sides over to get a point
Fold over the bottom and any extra fold over on the other sides.
Keep it aside on a piece of parchment and allow it to dry
Continue doing the same with the rest
You can shallow fry them, or lay them down on the microwave plate and cook it for 2 - 4 mins
