Spiced Peanuts

Bonjour,

Nuts are one of the popular healthy snacks and almost everyone loved nuts and just like other people out there, nuts are my favourite snacks especially spiced nuts, anytime and anywhere. As everyone knows, different types of nuts contain different nutrients but in general, nuts are a healthy food. A handful of these spiced peanuts won't be enough for me, it was so good and is totally addictive.

Let's make spiced peanut for 'apero', I'm sure everyone would be happy and don't be surprise if someone could be addicted to it.

SPICED PEANUTS

Ingredients;

300g raw peanuts
1 egg
3 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon rice flour
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
Salt and sugar to taste
Water
Curry leaves, fried separately, optional
Anchovies, fried separately, optional

METHOD;

- Combine all ingredients except peanuts, and add about 1/2 cup of water, mix until everything well combined.
- Add peanuts and stir until all peanuts are well coated.
- Heat up lots of oil in a wok or saucepan for deep frying.
- Drop a few tablespoons of coated peanuts and quickly separated the crumbled peanuts so this way they will fall apart and do not stick together.
- Keep the heat on the medium heat and stirring frequently to avoid any burning peanuts.
- Take it out with slotted spoon once the peanuts are cooked and golden brown and drain well on paper towels.
- Mix with fried curry leaves and anchovies, but that's not necessary because these peanuts tastes good even without those anchovies and curry leaves.
