- For extra flavor, roast the cumin seeds in a dry pan before adding them to the masala topping.
- If you prefer a milder spice level, reduce the amount of green chilies and red chili powder.
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying the papadums to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- For a variation, add other vegetables like finely chopped carrots or bell peppers to the masala topping.
