    After dinner I like to make myself a pot of nice tea, I love all sorts of tea so have a cupboard full of variety.  With this I microwave a couple of pappadams and then nibble on these, it replaces the habit of snacking on something sweet and I am happy.

    Hope this idea helps :)


    Hi Nicole

    How do you microwave pappadams.  Is one brand better than others.


    Hi Jan,

    Pappadums are super easy, I usually just place 2-4 on the glass tray in the microwave and microwave for about 25 seconds.  The directions on the packets say to microwave from 45-60 seconds but in my microwave that would burn them, you want them so they are just cooked and puffed up.  Once you figure out your microwave they will be a super easy and yummy snack.

    FYI ingredients in Maharajah's Choice Pappadams - Garlic (which I have at the moment) are Urid flour (usually ground lentils), vege oil, rice flour, spices, salt and raising agent (sodium bicarb).  There are a couple of other brands, all fairly similar so I either buy on price or just to have a different brand. 

    Hope this helps,

    Nicole

    I am loving flavoured tea at the moment. Oxfam has a good selection (they are Fair Trade too which is even better).

    If I feel like something sweet, a cup of Raspberry Black tea or Coconut Chai, will help take the edge off.

    ... I find raw nuts help... but I mean a 'portion' of about 30g of raw nuts.

    I usually mix up some hazelnuts, macadamias, almonds and even raw peanuts (but without the skin on them, otherwise they taste horrid!).

    Try this, I find it helps. And remember.. raw & portion are the key elements.

    :-)
