Mom's Spicy Papdi No Lot
Spicy & steamed rice flour dough! One of my favorites growing up!
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 5 cups water
- 1 tbsp cumin seeds
- 1/2 tbsp carom seeds
- 8 Thai chili peppers blended
- 2 serrano peppers blended
- 4 large jalapenos blended
- 1.5 tbsp salt
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 2 cups rice flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1 tsp cloves powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tbsp asafetida (hing)
Instructions
- Add your water in a pot to boil.
- While the water is boiling, take your cumin seeds and carom seeds and roughly grind them with a mortar and pestle. If you don't have one, you can roughly chop in a small food processor (or skip this step all together).
- Also blend your Thai chilies, jalapeno, and serrano peppers together.
- Once the water comes to a boil, add in the cumin and carom seeds and let this boil for a minute. Then add in the peppers, salt, and baking soda. Let this boil for another 2-3 minutes.
- In the meantime, add your rice flour, cinnamon powder, cloves powder, black pepper, and hing into another LARGE bowl. Mix well.
- After the 3 minutes are up for your water, pour the water into the flour mixture and immediately start stirring it with a large wooden spoon. Keep stirring fast until all of the clumps have gone away.
- Steam the dough for about 15-20 minutes. Once it's steamed, drizzle olive oil and methi masala and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use any brand rice flour that you'd like, but our personal favorite to use is the Deep brand.
- This recipe is SPICY. Be sure to remove seeds in peppers or reduce the number of peppers if you do not want to add too much heat.
