Now for another simple snack recipe :)

Masala Peanuts

This is one of my another favourite snacks. I added curry leaves in this recipe for that authentic kerala taste :).... Its easy and can be made anytime round the clock:)

 

Ingredients :


Peanuts - 1 cup
Besan Powder - 2 tsp
Rice Powder - 2 tsp
Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
Dry Mango Powder - 2 pinch
Asofetida - a pinch
Pepper Powder - 1/4 tsp
Garlic   - 2 big cloves crushed
Salt
Curry Leaves - 2 strings


Preparation:
I had raw skinless peanuts with me. So I didnt have to go through the trouble of roasting them. But in case if you dont have, roast the raw peanuts till you can easily remove the skin between your palm or fingers. Once removed. mix all the powders into peanuts and sprinkle a bit water till you get all the powders coated over the peanuts. Deep fry them in oil till you get a light brown color. Spread the peanuts on to a tissue to absorb any excess oil and then finally fry curry leaves and spread on top. You will get crispier peanuts once cold. Serve with hot tea :)

Cheers,
Neetz ;)
