Instructions

  1. Dry-roast the peanuts in a pan over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring, until they smell nutty.
  2. Let them cool, then blend finely with 200 ml of milk to make a smooth paste.
  3. In a saucepan, heat the remaining milk with the cinnamon, the split vanilla pod and the sugar, without letting it boil.
  4. Add the peanut paste and the salt, then simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring.
  5. Remove the cinnamon and vanilla, strain if needed, then let it cool and serve well chilled.

Variations and tips

Condensed milk version. Add the sweetened condensed milk at the end of cooking for a smoother, richer drink.

Using what's easy to find. Plain peanut butter can replace the roasted peanuts; reduce the sugar a little.
