PEANUT CHAAT

I was talking to one of my BEST FRIENDS an hour ago and discovered that she was quite bored of the same usual taste of snacks.So I am putting up this CHATPATI Recipe for her and all. Let's enjoy the Teekhi - Khatti Chaat in this season of Groundnuts.Here is the recipe for making fresh peanut chaat.

Ingredients:

Fresh Groundnuts 1/2 kg.
Salt 1 teaspoon
Onion 1 medium finely chopped
Tomato 1 medium finely chopped
Lemon 1 small.
Green Chillies ( Optional )
Namkeen Sev ( oy any namkeen of your taste )
Chat Masala

Preparation time: 15 mins to boil the groundnuts and 5 mins to make the chaat.

Difficulty level : EASY

Method :

Step 1).Wash the groundnuts well with water to remove all the mud.


Step 2).Now,in a pressure cooker,put water ,salt and add the groundnuts.Put the lid and boil for 15-20 mins on high flame.
Sometimes the groundnuts are quite hard,so they may require more of boiling.

Step 3).Once they are boiled,remove the cover to get soft salted peanuts.

Step 4). Now mix these with chopped onions,tomatoes,green chillies,chat masala, etc.Squeeze half lemon and mix it all well.


The peanut chaat is ready garnished with my favorite Haldiraam bhujia.So apt for this season.

  2. i think this is really a tough one ,because after boiling then we have to remove the cover which takes lotta effort.. instead we can buy a bhelpuri ready mix and do it in a min and eat :P
