Kuli Kuli
•KuliKuli
Kuli Kuli is an easy snack that can be eaten at any time of the day and is best served with soaked gari.
Ingredients
-2 cups of peeled, salted and roasted groundnuts
-Groundnut oil
-Ground pepper
-One and a half tablespoonful of ginger powder or grated gin ger to taste
-Slices of onion (Optional)
Preparation – Grind or pound the groundnuts/peanuts with the ginger until smooth. A powerful food processor can also be used. Do not allow the mixture to turn to paste completely.
-. Take a clean and dry muslin cloth, scoop the pasty nut into it and try to squeeze out the oil as much as you can. The more oil you can squeeze out, the crunchier your kuli kuli.
– Pour the result into a bowl and add the ground pepper, while mixing with your fingers.
– Mould the paste into either small balls or cylindrical sticks. Add a little water to help it mold easily.
– Heat enough oil in a non-stick pan until the oil begins to smoke. One can add the slices of onion to the oil to give it some flavour.
– Add the moulded paste into the oil and allow to fry till golden-brown on all sides.
– Remove from oil, place on absorbent paper and allow to cool.
Note: If the kuli kuli turns out softer than expected, you can put it in a preheated oven to dry and harden it. Your delicious kuli kuli is ready to serve. Eat with Gari (cassava flakes) soaked in cold water.
