Masala kadalai

How many masala kadalai lovers are there??

 You can prepare it very easily at home in less than fifteen minutes. It will be far better than store bought ones,  since we don't add any artificial colours or taste enhanceners.

Over to the recipe ..



Ingredients:


Raw peanuts        - 1 cup
Gram flour           - 1/4 cup
Rice flour              - 2 TBSP
Fennel seeds         - 1.5 TSP
Garlic                     - 4
Salt                         - as needed
Chili powder        - 2 TSP
Oil                           - for frying

Procedure:


You can check masala kadalai video recipe in Tamil here.


Grind Garlic and Fennel seeds together coarsely adding very little water.

Take a bowl. Add raw peanuts, gram flour, rice flour, garlic & fennel seeds paste, salt and chili powder to it.  Mix it well . If needed add little water. Each and every peanut should be coated with flour . If you add more water, flour won't stick well to peanuts .So add water  accordingly.

Now heat oil in a pan. When it is hot, add masala coated peanuts to it in small instances and fry it well on both sides in medium flame.

Drain excess oil and enjoy your  crispy and crunchy masala kadalai.

Notes:


 Adding garlic with skin increases masala kadalai flavour. You can also add more garlic according to your taste preference.

If you have added more water to peanuts try adding little more gram flour and rice flour. Gram flour should be more and rice flour should be less in quantity.
