Pachai veerkadalai masala sundal (Fresh raw groundnut snack)

Pachai veerkadalai masala sundal (Fresh raw groundnut snack) - Preparation time 15 mins
En Anubhavam

I got some fresh big size groundnut from our regular fruit vendor. I peeled the skin and got the fresh raw groundnuts. When i saw the ground first i thought of making normal sundal which i changed later to masala sundal. I haven't tried masala sundal using fresh groundnuts before. 
When made it came of well. Only when you make it spicy it will be good because the groundnut will be sweet so to beat that it should be spicy.

Ingredients:-
Fresh raw groundnuts - 2 cup pressure cook with required water & salt for 3 whistle and in low flame for 5 mins.
Red chili powder - 1/2 tsp
Garlic pods - 2
Ginger - 1 inch piece

Salt to taste
Sesame oil - 1 tbsp
Fresh coriander - finely chopped.
Mustard seed - 1/2 tsp
Urad dhal - 1 tsp
Saunf - 1 tsp
