Recipe type: Appetiser
Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
  • 2 cups raw, shelled and blanched peanuts
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp chili flakes
  • ¼ tsp granulated sugar
  • 3 limes, zested*
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350. Spread peanuts out on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, giving them a flip/toss half way through.
  2. While the peanuts are roasting, mix the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Remove peanuts from the oven and immediately toss with the salt mixture. Hot out of the oven, the peanuts will be lightly browned and glossy, since the natural oils from the peanuts will have come to the surface, this will help the salt and zest stick to the outside of the nuts without adding additional oil or liquid.
  3. Serve immediately or let cool and store in an airtight jar or bag.
Notes
* For bonus points, I like to add one kafir lime leaf when I can- very, very, very finely minced
