HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER
It was my long wish to make Peanut Butter at home.I was always of the opinion that it would not turn out nice and i will ultimately end up wasting the ingredients used.But when i was a asked to write for Kungumam Thozhi Magazine last month for 30 various dal/legume variety dishes,i knew i have to try this.It is a lot cheaper and more healthier if you make it this way. I searched google for many recipes but ended up in this because of its simple and easy ingredients.And ofcourse it was quick to make too.It took less than 15 minutes for the whole process and when it was served with simple toasted bread,it felt heavenly.I had made only a small batch hesistating about the result but was soon seen making more in the kitchen as the jar was wiped clean by daughter dear.Want to learn how to make this?Scroll below and see..
