EditTips Traditionally poppadoms are spicy, but you can make plain ones by omitting

the cayenne pepper in this recipe. The flavor of this poppadom recipe can be altered slightly with the addition of

herbs, peppercorns or chiles. You may also substitute other lentil or cerealflours in place of chickpea flour for different textures.
