> Masala Peanuts Recipe
> This is one of the popular bar munchies at Indian restaurants. It goes
> good with a cold glass of India Pale Beer, as well as a cup of Garam
> Chai (Sweetened hot tea latte). The varies slightly with the chosen
> peanuts. I don't like Dry roasted peanut, during dry-roasting, the oil
> is extracted away leaving behind a very different texture. In this
> recipe I have chosen un-salted roasted shell-on peanuts. They are cheap
> and readily available at most of the stores.
> Masala peanuts are served in a ramekin dish with a spoon.

> Ingredients
> 1. Roasted Peanuts: 1¼ Cup, Shelled, without skin.
> 2. Canola oil: 1 Tablespoon
> 3. Onion: 1 finely chopped
> 4. Salt: 1 teaspoon
> 5. Cayenne ground: ¼ teaspoon
> 6. Serrano:1 to 2, Washed and chopped
> 7. Garlic: 2 cloves, peeled and finely chopped
> 8. Cilantro: 2 Tablespoons, Washed. Pick leafs, discard stems.
> 9. Lime juice: 2 Tablespoons
>
> Method
> 1. Heat oil in a heavy bottom pan at medium.
> 2. Add peanuts. Stir around about two to four minutes. You need the
> peanuts to get warm.
> 3. Add remaining ingredients except lime juice. Stir and fry about 5 to
> ten minutes stirring occasionally till the peanuts start turning brown.
> 4. Turn off heat. Stir in lime juice.
