peanut sundal recipe | verkadalai sundal | groundnut sundal | nilakadalai sundal with step by step photo and video recipe. sundal recipes are a very common side dish or snack from the south indian cuisine. it is generally made with pulses or cereals during the festival season which can be served as prasadam during or after the fasting session. one such simple snack sundal is peanut sundal recipe from the popular tamil cuisine.
well, to be honest, i generally avoid making any peanut-based recipes in my blog, due to the allergies some may have on peanuts. yet i posted this recipe, for a couple of reasons. the first one is due to the fact that i was getting several requests to make simple and easy sundal recipe. the challenging part of selecting a hero ingredient for sundal is that it can be made with myriad options. i chose peanut, as it would strike a balance between my both south india and north indian readers. the other reason to select the groundnut sundal is the use of it. it can be made for any festival celebrations and served as prasadam. in addition to it, it can also be made as a side dish or as an evening snack and can be served with a cup of tea or coffee. well, there are many such practical benefits of this recipe and hence i felt it is worthwhile sharing it with video.
furthermore, i would like to add some tips, suggestions and variations to a perfect peanut sundal recipe. firstly, in this recipe, i have begun the cooking process by soaking the store-bought peanuts with skin. alternatively, you can skip the soaking process if you have access to fresh and tender groundnuts. it would be moist and a perfect ingredient for this sundal. secondly, you can follow the same cooking process to make other variety of sundal recipe. particularly, you can use the same recipe for chickpeas, black channa, kollu and even cashew nut based sundal. lastly, if you are planning to make it as a side dish to sambar rice or rasam rice, make it more spicy and savoury in taste.
