Today would have been my Dad's 67th birthday. I wonder how things would have been different if he were still alive. I do so often wish that Dad was around to see me cook and taste my dishes. He was a far better cook than me and used to do most of the cooking at home. I regret not learning much from him as I didn't take much interest before.
Sweet peanut soup was one of Dad's favourite dish to cook. Boy do I miss dad's cooking!

360 grams unsalted peanuts
2 litres water
4 tablespoons coconut milk or cream150 grams rock sugar or white sugar
360 grams unsalted peanuts

I love you daddy and miss you even more!
I'm sorry to hear your dad is no longer alive - I bet he'd have enjoyed this soup! It sounds really interesting - I've never had anything like it before.
