Papad Sabji

Hi Friends! I wanted to try this recipe for a long time but kept on postponing it. After seeing the RCI-Rajasthan, I thought of making this curry. We had it with rice, it tasted great.

I found this recipe in the following site:

Asha! Please do give it a try. Even though the papad are unfried, after being cooked in the gravy, they tasted very nice. Now this sabji became one of regular recipes.

Thank you Uma! It's very simple to make and needs less ingredients.
