ย  ย  ย I've already shared with you all my poondu podi and flaxseed podi recipes, but this peanut podi is perhaps my personal favorite, as well as my family's. It melts on your tongue almost instantly, and when you drop it on some hot rice, the smell is out of this world.

ย  ย  ย Today I prepared a simple channa masala and served it with brown rice, fresh red onions and green chilies, and of course, this peanut podi, which adds a sour and spicy kick, and I wanted to make something special for the three ladies in my life for International Women's Day.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Peanut & Tamarind Podi Preparation ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ

STEP 1

ย  ย  ย Dry-roast the peanuts in a wok or suitably-sized pan, remembering to stir often in order to prevent any burning. Remember to use a low flame while roasting and take your time; we are trying to slowly activate the peanut oil.

ย  ย  ย Remove the peanuts from the wok when they are well-toasted, set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.

STEP 2

ย  ย  ย Have a hungry family member perform peanut de-shelling and winnowing for you. Make sure your peanut winnower doesn't eat too many peanuts, and have them return the peanuts to you promptly. Hide the peanuts from all family members until further notice.

STEP 3

ย  ย  ย Return the work to the stove, and while it is getting hot, slice the garlic cloves in half. When the work is hot again, add a teaspoon of oil, then begin sauteing the chilies and tamarind about a minute until fragrant, then add the garlic cloves and continue sauteing until all ingredients are browned and fragrant.

ย  ย  ย Turn off the stove and and remove the garlic, chilies, and tamarind, and set them aside to cool.

*Note - remove the dried chilies first if they being to burn, and then continue sauteing the other ingredients until browned

STEP 7
