Peanut Powder

I am posting the recipe for one more staple powder from my kitchen which can be eaten with rice and ghee or with any breakfast dishes. One more excuse to eat peanuts, I think.

Ingredients:
Peanuts - 1 cup
Red chillies - 6 -8 or as needed
Salt - As needed

Preparation:
Dry roast the peanuts till they turn brown on low - medium flame.
Remove and cool them and remove the skins of the peanuts. (You can do this by rubbing them between your palms).
Just warm the red chillies to facilitate easy grinding.
Grind the peanuts, redchillies and salt into a fine powder.
Remove and store in a dry bottle.
