Microwave Masala Peanuts

Ingredients:

Raw peanuts - 1cup

Gram flour - 1cup

Kashmiri chilli powder - 1tbsp

Turmeric powder - 1/4tsp

Asafetida - a pinch

Curry leaves - few

Garlic paste -1tbsp

Olive oil - 3tbsp

Water - 1/4 cup

Salt to taste

Method:

In a microwave safe bowl add the ingredients except oil and water.Mix well.Add oil to this and mix well all the ingredients.Slowly add water little by little and give a mix,to coat the peanuts well.

Place the plate in the Microwave and heat for 2 minutes.Take out and stir the peanuts using a fork and place back in microwave and heat for 1 minute.Repeat the process till the peanuts are done.

The time in the microwave will depend on the wattage of the microwave.It took me 5 minutes.

It may still seem soft when you taste it while hot,but when you cool this it gets crunchy.

For increasing the crispness i   roast the masala peanuts  in a  pan for 2 minutes.
