(Image 8) ✓ Dry Roast Peanuts – While the sweet potatoes are baking, dry roast peanuts and set aside. ✓ Cilantro Chutney – For this recipe, I made Cilantro Chutney, feel free to use store-bought. I did use store-bought Tamarind Chutney though. ✓ More Spice – Add red chili powder or green chilies. The Cilantro Chutney has enough spice for me so I didn’t add any additional spice. ✓ Serve Immediately – Assemble when you’re ready to serve.
