Instructions
Cook the Peanuts
- Soak the peanuts for 3 to 4 hours in drinking water. They will soften and increase in size.

Make the Peanut Masala
- In a kadai, pour the oil and heat it. When hot, crackle the mustard seeds and then the whole cumin seeds.
- Add the chopped ginger and garlic and saute till the raw smell reduces. Add the curry leaves and mix well.
- Add in the chopped onions and green chillies. Fry till soft and light golden brown in color.
- Put in the chopped tomatoes and add salt to taste. Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder, cumin powder and coriander powder. Mix well and cook till the tomatoes are mushy.
- Add garam masala and the boiled peanuts. Mix well to combine. Add a little water and cook till a thick masala is formed. Check the salt and add more if needed. Top with fresh coriander leaves as a garnish and serve hot.
