I usually prepare these two chutneys a day before or earlier on the same day. And store in the refrigerator to make things easy.
Making Masala Peanuts
- Heat the small skillet on medium heat. Dry roast the peanuts with stiring constantly till it is light brown. Remove it in a plate and let it cool down.
- Once peanuts cool down, rub them between your palm, so skin will fall off easily. Then break them into halves.
- Heat the pan on medium heat with oil. Once oil is hot add peanuts with black salt, regular salt, red chili powder, amchur powder and chaat masala. Mix well so all the masala is coated well. Cook it for 2-3 minutes.
- Remove it to a plate and keep it aside for later use.
