<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I make pappadams while I'm cooking something else in the oven. You don't have to broil them. I just put them directly onto the oven rack, and when they start to blister after about 30-45 seconds in a 350 degree oven, I remove them with tongs. They are slightly pliable when you take them out but they crisp up in a minute or so after they cool off. No added oil or calories. I don't turn them over. Watch closely - they shouldn't brown.
