Masala Kadalai is nothing but the Verkadalai is soaked and then coated with Indian Spices and Besan Flour, After that, the Masala Kadalai can be deep fried in oil or it can be baked OR we can Microwave the Masala Kadalai.
There are three methods of making Masala Kadalai(masala Peanuts)
- Oven method that I have explained below with step by step procedures.
- Masala Kadalai in Microwave, This is also easy but we need to be very careful each every 1 minute we need remove it from the microwave oven and turn them. I feel this method is bit hectic.
- Masala Kadalai deep frying in oil, if we are not health conscious we can make this way. Tastier also.
