Ingredients For tsire spice

  • 1 1/2 c
    peanuts, roasted
  • 1 1/2 tsp
    chilli powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp
    ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp

    ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp
    ground cinnamon

How To Make tsire spice

  • 1
    Place the peanuts into a food processor and pulse till you get small peanut bits. You are looking for small enough bits to make this a spice mixture not spiced peanuts.
  • 2
    Throw in all the rest of the ingredients into the food processor and pulse until fully mixed. Store in an air tight jar for up to a month. You can freeze this too. The peanuts will go bad after a while so be careful.
  • 3
    Tip. The dryer the peanuts the better. Dry roasted works here but the taste is not the same. If you get wetter peanuts roast them a little longer, say 20 minutes in the oven at 250 degrees. Don't burn them just get the water out.
