Peanut sundal

There is an extremely irresistible and finger-licking sundal made by boiled peanuts and tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves and coconut but I always add the chat masala which used to make it different spicy and more tasty...this is a without onion garlic recipe which u can have during your vrat days also...:) I just love salty boiled peanuts..I can have this anytime...even without the tempering I would finish off a whole bowl. One of the easiest & healthy snacks for an lazy evening ..:)

A pinch of turmeric

1 tsp oil

1/2 tsp mustard seeds

2 dry red chillies
