Peanut Pakoda



Ingredients

Raw peanuts – 2 cup
Corn flour- 1 cup
Rice flour – 1 cup
Red Chili powder – 1 tsp
Hing – ¼ tsp
Salt – to taste
Oil for deep frying

Method

Mix the corn flour, rice flour , red chili powder, Asafetida(Hing), peanuts and salt. Sprinkle very little water and mix well. Keep aside for 30 minutes.
Heat the oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
A small bit of batter dropped into the hot oil bubbles and rises to the top immediately. Then add the batter-coated peanuts, piece by piece (or by the handful), adding as many as the wok can hold at one time.
Deep fry the peanuts in hot oil till they turn crispy and golden brown color.
Repeat with the remaining peanuts. Transfer to paper towels to drain the excess oil. Let cool and store in an airtight container and serve as a snack.
