the second papad also. Crush these papads with fingers—crush them to medium
pieces.In a mortar & pestle crush
the black pepper coarsely. Similarly crush the cumin seeds coarsely in mortar
& pestle. Heat some oil and fry the budam baddalu till crisp—fry them as
you fry curd chilies. Coarsely crush these fried budam baddalu.

Heat
a pan and add ghee. Melt the ghee and add crushed cumin seeds followed by
crushed black pepper. Fry till the cumin seeds are fried fully. Then add
asafoetida and curry leaves. Fry till the curry leaves are crisp. Then add
salt, crushed budam baddalu, crushed papad and cooked rice. Mix all well till
the rice is nicely coated with the seasoning. Transfer to a serving bowl and
serve immediately.
Points to Notice:
This
pepper rice is generally taken when one is suffering from cold, sore throat,
fever, upset stomach etc.
Black
pepper helps in relieving cold, sore throat. Cumin and asafoetida are good for
digestion. Similarly carom seeds also known as Ajwain or Vamu which is there in
budam baddalu helps in curing stomach disorders. The roasted papad and budam baddalu gives a nice crunch to this dish.
Frying
the ingredients in ghee gives a nice taste to this dish.
Roasting
papad in microwave oven is a healthier option to oil fried papad.
Coarsely
crushed black pepper and cumin seeds give relief in clearing sore throat.
You can learn how to prepare budam baddalu in Gayatri Vantillu. Homemade budam baddalu crushes well with
fingers—no need to crush them in mortar & pestle.
Serve
this dish as soon as you prepare—otherwise the papad loses its crunchiness and
becomes soggy.
