Adobong Mani Recipe
Adobong Mani also known as Garlic Peanut is a famous Filipino street food best for snacking or pulutan.
There are few variations on how to make this like the regular fried or spicy chili topped with generous fried garlic.
You can make this with brown skin on but I prefer it without. See recipe below.
Ingredients
- 4 cups raw peanuts, shelled
- 1/2 cup garlic, peeled and sliced thin (the more garlic the merrier)
