Spiced Cashew Nuts Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute cashews in butter and oil for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Spread on a paper towel-lined baking sheet; let stand for 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt, chili powder and pepper flakes; toss to coat. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Place a medium-size saute pan over medium heat.
• Add olive oil and cashews and toss to coat.
• Add chili powder, salt, and pepper and toss until warmed through.
• Remove from heat and serve.
• They will crisp as they sit.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the nuts, sugar, water, and salt into a large skillet over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently, and cook until the water is nearly evaporated and the liquid becomes syrupy, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the spices together in a small bowl.
• After 10 minutes, sprinkle the spices over the nuts and stir well. Continue stirring constantly while the water evaporates completely, about 5 minutes. When there is no longer any sugar syrup left in the bottom of the pan, turn off the heat and stir the nuts vigorously but carefully in the pan until the sugar seizes up and the nuts are evenly coated with crystallized sugar.
• Turn the nuts out onto the lined baking sheet and spread into an even layer. Cool completely before sifting the excess sugar from the coated nuts and storing in an airtight container.
• Cook's Note: DO NOT touch the nuts at any time while cooking or just afterward. Cooked sugar is extremely hot and can burn instantly when touched.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a wok. Add the spring onions, pinch chilli flakes, lemongrass and brown sugar along with the cashews. Fry until the nuts look burnished. Season and cool.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread the nuts out on a large baking sheet. Bake until the nuts are lightly toasted, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• In the meantime, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Transfer the nuts to a serving bowl. Pour in the butter and toss to coat evenly. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic and jalapeno and cook, stirring frequently, for three minutes or until onion is translucent. Stir in curry powder, cumin, coriander and turmeric. Cook, stirring constantly, for one minute. Scrape mixture into the slow cooker.
• Add tomatoes, lentils, stock, cinnamon sticks and cardamom pods to the slow cooker. Cook on low for three to five hours or on high for 1 1/2 to two hours or until lentils are almost soft.
• While lentils are cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Toast cashew nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet for 5 to 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Set aside.
• If cooking on low, raise the heat to high. Remove and discard cinnamon sticks and cardamom pods, and add zucchini and cilantro to the slow cooker. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes or until zucchini is tender. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately over rice.

• In a small heavy skillet melt the butter over moderately low heat, add the cumin, the chili powder, the cayenne, the salt, and the paprika, and cook the spices, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the nuts and stir them to coat them well. Transfer the coated nuts to a baking pan large enough to hold them in one layer and toast them in a preheated 350°F. oven for 5 minutes. Let the nuts cool and transfer them to serving dish.

Steps:

• Stir first 6 ingredients together in a large frying pan over medium heat.
• When butter mixture bubbly, add cashews and stir until hot and coated, (about 3 to 4 minutes).
• Spread on paper towels to cool.

Steps:

• On parchment paper-lined or greased rimmed baking sheet, toast cashews in 350°F (180°C) oven until fragrant and golden, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the sugar, salt, curry powder and cumin; set aside.
• In saucepan, bring water, remaining brown sugar and butter to boil, stirring constantly. Add cashews, stirring to coat; simmer until no liquid remains, about 3 minutes. Add to spice mixture; toss to coat well.
• Spread nuts on same baking sheet; roast until coating is dry and slightly golden, about 10 minutes. Let cool on pan on rack. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.).

Steps:

• Place the cashews in a small bowl and add cold water to cover the nuts by at least 1 inch. Let soak overnight. Drain and rinse under cold water. Transfer to a high-powered blender.
• Add the 2 cups cilantro, 1 cup parsley, all of the lime zest and juice, jalapeno, 3 tablespoons cold water, 2 tablespoons oil, the vinegar, cumin, salt and pepper. Blend on low speed then slowly increase the speed to high and blend until smooth and creamy.
• If the dip looks too thick, blend in 1 tablespoon of cold water at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. You may need to stop and start the blender a few times to help incorporated all of the ingredients.
• Scrape the dip into a medium bowl or airtight container. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 2 days. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with cilantro and parsley leaves. Serve alongside sliced cucumbers, bell peppers, chips and/or crackers.
