Dry roast the peanuts.
Next, roast the chile until it blisters and you get the smoky flavors.
Heat oil and fry the cumin seeds followed by the garlic cloves.
Roughly crush the peanuts and the green chili. Then add salt, cumin, and garlic. Pound to a coarse texture. Transfer to a bowl.
Serve with rice, roti, flatbreads, yogurt, or cottage cheese.
