Curry Cashews Recipe
Description
This recipe starts by roasting raw cashews in a single layer at 400°F until they turn slightly golden. Meanwhile, coconut oil is melted and mixed with curry powder, salt, and optional cayenne pepper to create the spiced coating. The hot cashews are then tossed with this seasoning mixture, which clings to the nuts due to the oil.
The result is crunchy cashews with an aromatic curry flavor and a hint of heat from the cayenne. These spiced nuts can be served warm or at room temperature, complementing drinks or as a flavorful snack.
To maintain freshness, the curry cashews should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. If they soften over time, reheating in a 350°F oven for about 5 minutes can restore their crispness.
Ingredients
- 1 lb. cashew nuts raw
- 1/8 cup. coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 degrees Celsius).
- Place cashews on a large baking sheet and arrange them in a single layer. Roast for 7 to 9 minutes, until slightly golden brown.
- Meanwhile, melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once melted, turn off the heat and stir in the spices.
- Place the roasted cashews in a large bowl. Pour the spiced coconut oil over the cashews and toss well to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Store the curry cashews in an airtight container at room temperature, keeping them fresh for up to two weeks.
- To restore crispness if nuts soften, reheat in a 350°F oven for about 5 minutes.
