Spicy Peanuts

Step 1

Soak the peanuts with water overnight until you can easily remove the skins.

Step 2

Then drain the peanuts slightly and rub the peanuts with both hands forcefully. The skins will be separated. Then peal the remaining skins.

Step 3

Transfer the peanuts into an air-tight bag and freeze for 3-4 hours or overnight.

Step 4

Place peanuts into a pan and add enough oil to cover. Heat over medium fire until the peanuts start to sizzle and floating on the surface. Transfer out and drain off the oil.

Step 5

Re-add around 1/2 tablespoon of oil and fry Sichuan peppercorn and chili pepper shreds until aromatic. Place the peanuts in. Mix with salt, sugar, five spice powder, Sichuan pepper, salt and white pepper.

Step 6

Transfer them to an air-tight container, covered and store for 2-3 days until the mala flavor is well absorbed.
