Peanut salad.

A healthy and delicious peanut salad which can be served with rice or roti. I prefer to add it to some puffed rice/ kurmura along with some green chutney to snack on when the stomach starts growling.

Ingredients:

100 gms peanuts soaked overnight

1 tomato finely chopped

1 onion finely chopped

1 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves

Juice of half a lemon

A sprinkling of chilly flakes

1 tbsp grated coconut

1 tsp oil of choice

1/4 tsp mustard seeds

1 sprig curry leaves

Salt

Method:

Pressure cook the peanuts with salt till they are soft. Normally ten minutes on a low flame after the first whistle suffices. Allow to cool thoroughly before adding the chopped tomato, onion, coriander leaves , chilly flakes and grated coconut. Heat oil in a pan. Drop in the mustard and after it splutters add the curry leaves. Switch off and pour the seasoning over the peanuts. Drizzle with lemon juice. Mix well and serve.
