Stir fried Spiced melon seeds

Stir fried Spiced melon seeds

Introduction:

"My mother-in-law's family grows sunflower seeds in a garden every year, and receives dozens of Jin of melon seeds in this season. Every time I go back to my mother-in-law's house, I bring back some melon seeds to eat. Most of them are fried by my father-in-law, and I also bring back some raw melon seeds. I've also made a heating version of Spiced melon seeds. I put the cooked melon seeds on the heater to dry. This kind of melon seeds is only suitable for heating in winter, but the melon seeds are not so crisp and hard. Later I saw this method on TV, so I tried to do it. The steps are very simple. It takes a long time to fry the melon seeds. It's a very tiring job. I keep frying so much that my arms are sore. But the taste is really good. It's not worse than the ones sold outside. If you're interested, you can have a try. "
