Masala peanuts or masala kadalai, is a deep fried snack with peanut. I still remember having this as evening snack- which my dad used to buy these while returning after work- along with hot tea. \u00a0The rich flavor of hot spices and garlic with the aroma of coconut oil makes it a perfect snack, which can be stored in an air tight container for days. \u00a0There is some possible healthy alternative to this preparation, by baking instead of oil frying. This recipe explains the conventional oil fried version.<\/p>\n
