ABSTRACT
Papads were prepared from steamed pulp of healthy, matured, unripe bananas of three varieties (Grand Naine, Yangambi KM-5 and Monthan) with papad masala (10 g per kg of pulp) and with or without urd flour (25%) or rice flour (25%). The physical, frying and biochemical parameters of papads were studied. Papads of T4 (Sulphur fumigation banana without peel @ 2g/kg of for 30 min + steaming + grinding with papad masala @ 10g/kg pulp + 25% urd powder + pressing + drying) made from Monthan showed the highest recovery (62.13%) and papads of T3 made from Yangambi KM-5 showed the lowest moisture (3.21%). With respect to frying characteristic, papads of T7 made from Grand Naine showed the lowest oil uptake (9.15%) and highest expansion (30.11%). The highest total sugars (18.76%) and reducing sugars (7.79%) were found in papads of T7 made from the variety Grand Naine.
