The whole process takes seconds so have slotted spoon and paper-towel lined plate ready. Do not allow Papad to turn brown or black. Drain the Papad well and remove to a plate.
- Grilling: Place under a medium grill until bubbles appear on the surface and the color turns from translucent to opaque. Turn over and repeat the process. Place at least 11/2-inch away from the grill to prevent burning.
- Roasting: The Papad is held between tongs or chimta and roasted over an open flame. Quick and frequent turning is required to prevent burning. As soon as Papad has changed color, curled up and become crisp, it is done.
