  1. Extract the juice from the tamarind pulp and discard the solids. Blend the spice paste ingredients into a smooth paste, adding water if needed.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and stir-fry the spice paste until fragrant. Then, turn the heat to medium-high and continue cooking until the oil slightly separates.
  3. Add the tamarind juice, peanuts, and water, then stir well and bring to a quick boil. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for another 5-10 minutes. Add sugar and salt to taste. Dish out and set aside.
