Ingredients
- peanuts, shells and skins removed, roasted
- one cup uncooked rice or rice flour
- one-half cup sugar
Directions
Using a mortar and pestle, a rolling pin, or something similar, break and grind the peanuts into small pieces, taking care not to crush them into a powder or paste.
If using uncooked rice: parch the rice in a dry skillet, stirring continuously, until it becomes slightly browned. Break and grind the rice into pieces as was done with the peanuts.
If using rice flour: parch the rice flour in a dry skillet, stirring continuously, until it becomes slightly browned.
Combine the crushed peanuts and rice (or rice flour). Crush and grind them together until they form a powder, add the sugar and mix well.
Using your hands, form the mixture into cubes or pyramids, or press it into a pan and then cut it into squares.
May be served immediately, or stored in air-tight containers.
