This zero-oil version of Masala Papad differs from the usual starter in many ways, and not just in the absence of oil! Usually, when deep-fried papads are used to prepare masala papad, the oil helps to hold the chopped vegetables and spice powders in place. Here, we have used a layer of peppy green chutney for the purpose. Not only does this bind the toppings with the papad, it also enhances the flavour manifold.
