Roast Peanuts | Njugu Karanga

Hey there 👋

Here’s a quick & easy method to roast peanuts at home. The results are perfectly crunchy peanuts in minutes. Approximately 10-15 Min of cooking.

I personally like this method because;

• It only takes 10-15 minutes to cook 😊
• The peanuts rarely burn when cooking ; That is, if you set the right temperature & place them on the right tier in the oven. You can actually go about your business as they cook.
• I don’t have to keep turning them over in a pan/sufuria while roasting. I am very unlucky at this method they always burn or cook unevenly.
• All the peanuts cook evenly hustle free. 😊
• I can cook in bulk in the shortest time 😎

**Quick Tip**
🥜 I find the middle tier the best for roasting.
🥜 Don’t keep/soak the Peanuts in water for too long or else they might become soggy. The salty water helps the Peanuts absorb the salt easily.
🥜 When you are done cooking some peanuts may be soft.. Don’t worry!! They will cook as they cool down.

Let`s begin;
