Instructions
- Grind the peanuts and ginger until smooth.
- Add the ground chili pepper and mix well.
- Squeeze the peanut paste to remove as much oil as possible. This step is very important to obtain a very crisp kuli kuli.
- Divide the dough into about twenty pieces and give the kuli kuli their shape: either in a stick, in a small crown, or in balls.
- Add 2 tablespoons of water to the dough if it does not work easily.
- Heat a large volume of peanut oil in a deep pan.
- Fry the kuli kuli over medium heat until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Enjoy hot or cold
Notes
- It is possible to add a few slices of onion or cloves in the oil while frying to give an extra flavor.
