Preparation

Step 1

1) Rinse soak peanuts and drain well.
2) Combined all the above ingredients in a pot with some water and bring to boil.
3) Reduce the heat and continue to simmer until peanuts are soft. It might take 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
4) Serve peanuts warm or at room temperature.

Note :
The peanuts will cook faster and softer if you use pressure-cooker for 30 min. I added some hard boil egg to the braised peanuts.
