Air Fried Peanuts

Circuit Breaker Day 55.  Tomorrow, the 1st batch of the workforce will be allowed to go back to work.  Let's hope there won't be a big outbreak so that we can move on to the next phase.

Keep safe everyone.

Now back to our blog post.  

I used to slave over the stove to cook peanuts and I remembered days when I helped mom to remove the skin from the peanuts.  It was a tiring task.  

Instead of using the wok, I also tried oven baking it but some times, I ended up with a burnt batch.

These days, I am no longer intimidated by it because I air-fried it and it is foolproof.

Back to today's post, hubby accidentally bought 2 big bags of peanuts home.  Now I have to come up with something that I can use it up.

First, let's Air Fried Peanuts to prepare for our next post.

What you need:

400g raw peanuts

Method:

Remove any impurities.  Give the peanuts a quick rinse.

Add into the basket.

Set 140°C and bake for 12 mins.  Give it a shake midway through.

Increase temperature to 160°C and continue to bake for 6 mins.

Remove and let it cool slightly.

Using two hands, rub the peanuts.  The skin should come out nicely. 

Separate skin and nuts.

Once cool completely, store in airtight containers.

Enjoy!
