The Best Roasted Peanuts!!!


BEST ROASTED PEANUTS EVER!



When I'm not sewing breastfeeding covers I'm in the kitchen inventing weird strange sugar free recipes!  Since I prefer home made rather than shop bought I thought I'd roast some peanuts. After a few attempts at perfecting the good ol roasted peanuts I reckon I found the secret!  






  1. I usually buy a kilo bag of the best large raw peanuts from the local nut guy
  2. Place the peanuts in a large colander.
  3. Boil the kettle! 
  4. Pour the hot boiling water all over the peanuts and let the water drain
  5. Immediately sprinkle 1 - 2 tablespoons of salt (depending on how salty you like your nuts) and mix well
  6. Place flat on a baking tray
  7. Roast in the oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes
  8. Stir the peanuts and cook for another 15 minutes or cook till brown
  9. IMPORTANT: make sure you keep a close eye on it as the peanuts can burn easily if your oven is too strong (yep... speaking from experience after ruining a couple bags of peanuts)
  10. Test a couple to make sure it's nice a crunchy
  11. Once cool.... you EAT!
