<\/p>\nI’ll admit it… I’m kind of a sports geek. The three sports I care about most \u2013 the NBA playoffs (sorry, Lakers :(), soccer finals (Chelsea!), and Formula 1 races (Sebastian Vettel!) \u2013 are all in high gear right now. But what are sports without some delicious one ingredient snacks?! <\/p>\n
These roasted cashews draw inspiration from Asian\/Indian spices with just enough sweetness to create a beautiful caramelized and crunchy exterior. They’re like a much more unique and flavorful version of your typical honey roasted cashews but without all the weird ingredients and preservatives.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Makes 2 cups (8 servings)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Note: Don’t let these spices limit you! I’ve made this recipe on several occasions and always use a different combination of spices. Feel free to experiment with curry powder, chili powder, ginger, cinnamon, or whatever else you want to try.<\/em><\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 300\u00ba F. Add the cashews to a mixing bowl and pour all the other ingredients (minus the sea salt) over the top. Roll up your sleeves and use your hands to toss\/coat thoroughly.<\/p>\n Transfer the cashews to parchment paper or a Silpat and bake for about 7 minutes. Then, remove from the oven and toss with a spatula to ensure even coating. Bake for another 5-8 minutes until the cashews become light brown — if they get too dark, things are probably burning and you don’t want that! (The ones in the picture below are actually slightly overcooked.)<\/p>\n Remove from the oven and sprinkle with a little sea salt. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Straight out of the oven, the cashews will be soft and rubbery, but they develop a much nicer crunchy texture after cooling. <\/p>\n As an optional step, you can very finely<\/em> dice some tomato, red onion, and basil and toss with the cashews. This combination seems a little bizarre at first, but it’s really fresh and interesting; it would work great as a unique hors d’oeuvre for a party.<\/p>\n I’ll admit it… I’m kind of a sports geek.
