Papad an important part of South Asian cuisine, recipes vary from region to region and family to family, but typically it is made from lentil, chickpea, black gram or rice flour or Potato. In North India, the lentil variety is more popular and is usually called 'papad'. Salt and peanut oil are added to make dough, which can be flavored with seasonings such as chili, cumin, garlic or black pepper. Sometimes baking soda is also added. The dough is shaped into a thin, round flat bread and then dried (traditionally in the sun) and can be cooked by deep-frying, roasting over an open flame, toasting, or microwave, depending on the desired texture. In most curry houses in the United Kingdom and Australia, they are served as a starter alongside various dips and usually mango chutney

Process of papad making machine

Dough mixer (floor kneading machine): This machine would consist of heavy-duty stainless steel body with multi-purpose arms. Heavy-duty gears are providing to take the full load and to avoid damage to the mixer arms.

Sheeter for papad making machine: A sheeter consisting of a heavy- duty frame with gauging rollers driven by a motor with gearbox arrangement would be providing. The hopper would be of stainless steel with proper taper. The dough is smooth formed from the hopper in the form of a sheet and feed to the gauging rollers. The distance between the gauging rollers would be adjustable and this would depend on the desired thickness of the papad, mathiya, cholafali. The rollers would be polyvinyl chloride coated (food-grade material). There would be an intermediate conveyor to feed the dough sheet to the cutting plant. The conveyor belt would be of food-grade material.

Rotary cutting unit of papad making machine: A rotary cutting unit would be fits on a roller for smooth and accurate cutting of papad as per the desired sizes.

Dryer for papad An electric drier would be use to dry the papad. The dryer casing would be reinforcing by means of m. S. Sections to make it sturdy. Temperature dial meters would be provide at different places in the oven. Above 15 to 16 kg/hour pant, we will supply lamenter type along with the sheeter and extruder process will be omits. Drier can also supply with diesel faired or liquefied petroleum gas instead of electric fired system for reducing daring cost.
