The paste is stripped of excess oil with water and made into the desired shape (round balls, cylinders, etc.).

It has a very long shelf life and is often given to children as a treat or sold in taxi parks to travellers.

All aspects of producing and selling the peanut oil and kuli-kuli are socially considered 'woman's work'.

Women grow the crop, extract and refine the oil, cook the kuli-kuli, carry it to the market, and sell it.

In contrast, a man growing peanuts is more likely to sell his entire crop of 100 kilo bags wholesale.
