Cookd masalas for roasted peanuts
Method
In the same pan, add all the ingredients for the podi along with one portion of the roasted peanuts, and dry roast everything together.
Now, coarsely blend the mixture.
In another pan, prepare the tempering. Add the cooked white rice and salt to the pan, then mix well.
In a cooker, add oil, mustard seeds, urad dal, and fennel seeds. Let them splutter. Add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the peeled potatoes and soaked soya chunks.
Add the cooked Madurai chukka masala and mix well. Pour in water, cover, and pressure cook for 1 or 2 whistles. Once the pressure is released, open the lid and stir-fry the mixture.
