Lightly salted Roasted peanuts

Roasted Peanuts

Roasted peanuts or time pass palli is a healthy and tasty snack. Back in our town there used to be a bandi/cart ringing a bell and selling the lightly salted roasted peanuts on the street. I used to love them a lot and buy them when ever my mom game me a rupee or so. I tried to make them at home as they are simply roasted peanuts and didn’t want to spend my pocket money on them. But it never worked out. Roasting peanuts is easy but I didn’t know how to make them lightly salty.

Recently I saw this recipe online and tried at home. They turned out really good. This is the tried and tested recipe for yummy lightly salted dry roasted peanuts
