Braised Nuts

Ingredients
500g large groundnuts (soaked three hours)
1 piece dried mandarin orange peel
6 cloves/bunga cengkih
3 star anise/bunga lawang
1/2 inch cinnamon bark/kayu manis
1 tsp whole peppercorns (pound coarsely)
750ml water

Seasoning:
3 tbsp soya sauce
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt

Method
1. Wash nuts and drain well. Add in all ingredients and seasonings. Use a pressure cooker to cook for one and a-half-hours.

2. You can braise nut in a normal pot but remember to top in extra water before it dries up.

3. Using a crockpot can be ideal too. Slow cook on a high degree for four hours. Check softness of nuts.
