How to roast peanuts using a microwave
- Step 1: Place peanuts on the surface of the plate. Cover with wax paper and place the plate in the microwave, select the grill mode for 1 minute.
- Step 2: After 1 minute, open the microwave, use chopsticks to flip the peanuts, cover the plate with paper again, select the grill mode for an additional minute.
Step 3: Take the peanuts out of the microwave. You'll notice a slight oiliness on the peanuts when you unwrap the paper. Mix them evenly, and press the 'microwave' setting for an additional minute.
Step 4: Remove the peanuts from the microwave, they should have turned golden by now. Let them cool down before indulging (note: avoid eating them right away while hot, as they won't be crunchy yet).
Note:
Depending on the settings of your microwave, you should adjust the time and temperature accordingly. However, avoid pressing the 'microwave' setting for 3 minutes at once, instead, press it for each minute separately, keeping an eye on it, adjust as needed, use chopsticks to stir to ensure even roasting.
Microwaving peanuts is both simple and time-saving, isn't it? Wishing you success with this method!
