When I saw Jamie Oliver cooking poppadoms in a microwave on 15 Minute Meals, I wondered if it was some kind of trick. Surely there's not enough moisture in a poppadom to enable it to puff up?
Well there is and it works perfectly - I think they are much nicer than deep fried poppadoms which always taste greasy and unhealthy.
If you really must have a 'fat-kick' with your papadums, then first brush them with a tiny amount of butter or olive oil.
They won't puff up if they are lying on top of each other, or if they are flat on the microwave turntable.

Method
- Arrange 4 poppadoms at a time in a plastic bowl so they stand up independently.
- You can spray with a little olive oil if wanted. Not authentic, but healthier and tastier than sunflower oil.
- Microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, checking progress as you go.
- Remove only those that have fully puffed up and continue until all are nice and puffy.
- Leave to cool for 2 minutes after cooking because they don't become crisp until they have cooled down.
