I had earlier posted a baked version of masala peanuts that is always a super hit in my house. When I came across a similar recipe in Mallika Badrinath book using the microwave, I had to try it. This would be the way to go if you are making a small batch and do not want to heat up the oven. The peanuts were crunchy and as always it was gone in no time. Off to the recipe.

My Notes
Microwave cooking times vary based on microwave. Adjust accordingly.
