South Indian No Onion No Garlic Peanut Salad / Palli Guggillu / Peanut Sundal, is a simple and easy to make, which I mostly  prepare in this Indian style.

With the addition of basic ingredients & Indian flavours, this salad is not far away from making addictive!

This satvik salad is suitable not just as a salad, but as a starter, snack, even as travel food or even in the kids lunch box.

It is mostly preferred for Traditional Festive Naivedyam offering during Indian Festivals.

For instance, when I made this salad during dinner time, I compensated the dinner just with this salad, did not eat anything else. Which sufficed my tummy very well. Just go for it then!! 🙂

Step wise pics Procedure for ‘Peanut salad / Palli Guggillu’:

Prep Work:

As part of the prep work, getting the peanuts boiled is most important.

You can cook the peanuts either on Stove Top (or) in an Instant Pot Pressure Cooker. I have given both the methods so check accordingly.

Stove Top Method to boil Peanuts:

Take the raw peanuts into a sauce pan. Add 3 cups of water, close with lid.

Put the vessel on stove top under high flame. Let them cook for 15 mins or until they turn tender when pressed between fingers.

Instant Pot Method to boil Peanuts:

Take the peanuts into the Instant Pot vessel. Add water (2½ cups), close the lid.

Set the valve to sealing, mode to PRESSURE COOK, pressure level to HIGH, time to 5 mins.

Later, when the timer is back to 0, then release the pressure naturally (NPR). Strain the water & use the boiled peanuts.

Cooking the Peanut Sundal / Palli Guggillu:

Put a frying pan on stove top under medium flame. Add the ‘Ingredients for tempering’ and sauté for a min.

Now add all these>> boiled peanuts, salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and curry leaves to the pan. Keep stirring for 30 sec.

Tips & Storage:

  • To make Roasted Peanut Powder: Put a wide frying pan on stove top under medium flame, add a handful of raw peanuts, dry roast until they turn pale brown. Let them cool completely & powder them in a spice blender. 
  • Adding onions, garlic doesn’t suit for this recipe.
  • Adjust the salt & spice as per your taste.
  • To make the salad even more healthier>> just add boiled peanuts, raw veggies into a bowl, add the seasoning. Toss and serve. you can skip the ‘tempering’ section, skip the salt too.
  • Storage: You can add the seasonings, and store it in fridge but top up the grated veggies just before serving.

Result:

  • Peanut salad (vegan & gf) / Palli guggillu, is very simple to make but the taste is exotic.
  • The crunchy, nutty peanuts combined with spices and the addition of powdered peanuts, made this simple salad a special one
  • And its very much suitable for upavasam / fasting day diet.
