Here I entered the kitchen after a very long time, doing what i know how to do best.
Good morning friends, I was informed by @eldecor about this contest I, seeing it is about what I like doing at free time. Here I will tell you how best to prepare peanuts, I guess not everybody know what it means but just sit back and read carefully as I take you through.
Peanut, or should I say peanut burger is known all over Nigeria and its neighboring countries, i first started loving peanut in Ghana I couldn’t at all even get enough of it no matter how hard I try. Before I know it spread all over Ghana but sadly I came back to my country Nigeria.

Even in Nigeria I never know it was widely known, it was when I came in, and I began seeing it in packs in most stores. I will most times spend a lot of money just to have a taste of it. And it was actually eating me up financially. Till it get to a point where I had to go learn how to prepare it and start doing it myself and eats as many as I want.
Believe me for the fact that you love groundnuts you will surely love peanuts. Peanut is made by coating groundnuts, it is very crunchy, slightly sweet and so addicting! Most importantly you should know that after preparing it, it will not last long after you make them, that is if you keep it exposed to air for long
Just of recent I made some peanut burger and sent as a gift to my cousin brother who is newly wedded, I also discovered that peanut is a snack that can boost your finance if you make to sell in the markets. All that is needed of you to do is to coat the peanuts with some flour, eggs, sugar, salt and also nutmeg that is if you wish.
INGREDIENTS USED
. 3 eggs
. 2 cups of flour (250 grams)
. 1/3 cup of sugar (64.7 grams)
. Vegetable oil for frying
. A little pinch of salt
. ¼ teaspoon nutmeg it is optional
. 2 cups of raw groundnuts (peanuts)
. ½ teaspoon baking powder
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PREPARE PEANUTS
1 pour your groundnuts into a bowl then select it to take out the bad ones.
2 you will mix the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt and keep aside.
3 In another bowl you beat (mix) the egg together with sugar.
4 pour a little of the eggs you mixed with sugar other the groundnuts. Shake the bowl until the mixture touches all the groundnuts.
5 spray some of the flour mixture over the groundnuts and shake the bowl.
6 repeats the same process from 4 and 6 until the groundnuts are all covered with the flour. Note if some gum together use your hands to separate them and continue.
7 put the oil on the fire don’t let the fire to be too high, let the heat be medium, then start frying bit by bit until it is golden brown.
8 then your peanut is ready, but you will allow it to cool for some time, then you can serve or you store in an airtight container.
