Indian Style Flatbread (Pappadam)

Mix the spices with the lentil flour and toast lightly in a dry pan. Stir the water with the salt, heat and let cool slightly, then pour in a thin stream into the flour mixture while stirring. This should form a very stiff dough. Pour the mixture into a food processor and finely shred. Then place the dough in portions in a mortar and pound until a gummy consistency develops. Roll out the dough portions to make small patties. Allow the patties to air dry, then store in an airtight container.
