Ingredients
2 cups freshly roasted peanuts, or any high-quality, store-bought roasted peanuts1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt or to taste
1 tablespoon five-spice powder
1 tablespoon red chili powder or to taste
1/2 cup chopped green onions
Directions
Place the peanuts and sugar in a non-stick pan over moderate heat. Stir until the sugar starts to melt, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Drizzle the oil on the peanuts then add the salt, five-spice powder and chili powder. Stir another 3 to 5 minutes. (The
sugar on the peanuts will start to harden and become crunchy.)
Remove the peanuts from the heat and immediately add the green onions. Toss several times and transfer to a cookie sheet to cool.
