Masala Shengdana is a popular Indian snack made from roasted peanuts, seasoned with a perfect blend of spices. This savory, crunchy treat is coated with a spicy mix of chili, turmeric, and other traditional spices, delivering a bold and flavorful snack that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

Raw Peanuts (Shengdana) – 1 cup (200g)
Besan (Gram Flour) – 2 tbsp
Rice Flour – 1 tbsp (for extra crispiness)
Red Chili Powder – 1 tsp (adjust to taste)
Turmeric Powder – ½ tsp
Cumin Powder (Jeera Powder) – ½ tsp
Chaat Masala – ½ tsp (optional, for extra tanginess)
Rock Salt (Sendha Namak) or Regular Salt – to taste
Sugar – ½ tsp (optional, for a balanced taste)
Black Pepper Powder – ½ tsp
Curry Leaves (Kadi Patta) – 8-10 leaves (optional, for extra flavor)
Oil or Ghee – 1 tbsp
Water – 2 tbsp (for coating)

Step 1: Preparing the Masala Coating

In a mixing bowl, combine besan, rice flour, red chili powder, turmeric, cumin powder, black pepper powder, chaat masala, salt, and sugar.
Add 1 tbsp oil/ghee and mix well.
Add water gradually and mix until the peanuts are well coated with the masala mixture.

Step 2: Roasting/Frying the Peanuts

Option 1: Deep Frying

Heat oil in a deep pan.
Fry the coated peanuts in batches on medium heat until golden and crispy.
Drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

Option 2: Air Frying (Healthier Method)

Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F).
Spread the masala-coated peanuts evenly in the basket.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket occasionally for even roasting.

Option 3: Baking (Oil-Free Option)

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Spread peanuts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crispy.
