Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
2 cups raw peanuts, skin-on, if possible
Kosher salt
12 makrut lime leaves
2 tablespoons thinly sliced lemongrass
8 small dried chiles (bird's eye chiles, pulla, or árbol), or to taste

Steps:

  • Pour enough oil into a wok or deep saucepan to come halfway up the sides. Heat the oil over medium high to 350°F. (Throw in a grain of uncooked rice; if it pops up and starts sizzling right away, the oil is ready. Or use a thermometer.) Add all the peanuts and fry until they turn golden-brown and become fragrant, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Drain on paper towels, spacing out the nuts so they stay crisp. Sprinkle a teaspoon or so of salt over the nuts while warm.
  • Repeat the frying process in the same oil with the lime leaves, lemongrass, and chiles, cooking each separately until fragrant and golden brown (less than a minute), then draining on paper towels. Transfer the peanuts to an airtight container and crush the fried aromatics over the top, tossing to mix. Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month.
