Peanut oil (for frying)

Method

• Grind the peanuts and ginger until smooth.
• Add the ground chilli 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
