This vibrant vegan starter pairs light, crispy papadums with a uniquely creamy whipped red lentil dal. The dal is gently simmered with aromatic ginger, garlic, and curry spices before being blended with fresh coriander and citrus for a bright, modern finish. It is a wonderful way to reinvent classic Indian flavours into a sophisticated dip that feels both comforting and fresh.
Ideal for hosting or as a nutritious afternoon snack, this red lentil dish is packed with plant-based protein and warming spices. While the papadums provide a satisfying crunch, the smooth, aerated texture of the whipped dal makes it an excellent alternative to traditional houmous. Serve it as part of a larger sharing platter or enjoy it as a simple, gluten-free treat.

Ingredients for Papadums With Whipped Dal
Cooking spray
12 papadums
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
60ml chopped white onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoons cardamom
1 teaspoon chopped ginger
1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 cup red lentils
1/4 cup coriander leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped tomato
120ml vegan mayo
How to make Papadums With Whipped Dal
Back to contentsLine a plate with paper towels. Pour a shallow layer of canola oil in a large sauté pan or skillet and heat over high heat until it ripples.
Fry the papadum sheets one at a time until crispy, about 30 seconds. There’s no need to flip them, as they are so thin. Transfer to the paper towel–lined plate to absorb excess oil, then cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Heat the sunflower oil in a medium saucepan over high heat until it ripples. Add the onion, garlic, curry, cardamom, ginger, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium, add 725ml water and the lentils, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool fully.
Transfer the lentil mixture to a blender with the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Serve with papadum pieces or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
