    Ingredients

    The following are the ingredients needed for preparing Masala Kadalai,

    • Raw peanuts/groundnuts - 1 cup
    • Gram flour - 2-3 tablespoons
    • Rice flour - 1 tablespoon
    • Red chilli powder - 1/2 tablespoon or as preferred
    • (Instead, Kashmiri chilli powder can also be used to give it a rich colour.)
    • Turmeric powder - 1 teaspoon
    • Asafoetida / hing - 1/4 teaspoon
    • Curry leaves a handful or less.
    • Salt as required
    • Water 
    • Oil for deep fry.

    Preparation Steps

     

    1. In a large bowl, add a cup of peanuts, chilli powder, asafoetida, turmeric powder, salt and mix well.
    2. Add rice flour, a tablespoon of hot oil and then add gram flour little by little and mix well by sprinkling one or two tablespoons of water. 
    3. Do not add too much water. In case if you did, you can balance the excess water by adding a little more gram flour.
    4. In a heavy bottomed pan, pour oil for frying and heat at a medium flame.
    5. When the oil is hot, take a handful of prepared mixture and drop them one by one into the oil.
