Method
Roast the peanuts on low flame for 10-15 mins, until the skin starts separating and you get the roasted aroma. Transfer it to a plate and let the peanuts cool down. Separate the skin using a cloth.
Transfer the peanuts to a mixer grinder and pulse it. Add oil, jaggery and salt and make a smooth paste. Allow the mixer jar to cool in between if it heats up while grinding
For crunchy peanuts, add some chopped peanuts and mix. For high protein peanut butter, mix the protein powder in peanut butter. Serve it over toast/oatmeal/ milkshake. Store at room temperature
