Peanut Salad

It is an unwritten rule in my house that healthy dishes like this should be on our menu at least once a day. Looking at the snapshot, I guess there is no necessity for me to mention the joy of crunching this with a hot cup of coffee or tea at dusk. I have been preparing this dish quite often ever since the birth of my little one; one of the few healthy eatable that he likes. This is called "Sundal" in tamil.
