Daria Dall Split Roasted Gram / Fried Gram / Putnala Pappu
Fried Gram or Dalia or Putnala Pappu are prepared from chickpeas. Not the regular, white chickpeas but from a special variety of chickpeas commonly sold under the name ‚Kala Chana or Black Chickpeas”.People search to buy freshly prepared Roasted Dariya Pappu and they enjoy it. For those of you who don’t, you must try this snack at least once. It is a really great tasting, guilt-free snack.
The making of Split Putnala Pappu (Dalia) is a fascinating process. First, the Black Chickpeas get soaked in water for several hours, and after draining, chickpeas are roasted in big caldrons under controlled medium-low fire for several hours until the chickpeas turn to a crisp. Once the roasting process is completed, the hulls of chickpeas will be removed and each chickpea automatically will be split into two equal pieces. This whole soaking-roasting system intensifies the chickpea flavor, and also changes them to light yellow, mildly sweet pappulu or Dalia. This making process is done in special places called Bhattis.
