fluffyknickers Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I bought a couple of bags of raw cashews as was going to make some dairy/soya/egg free ice-cream for my daughter (recipe I found - she has allergies). Anyway, she decided she doesnt like icecream! What can i do with the cashews? Made some fridge cake yesterday using hazelnuts - cashews are softer so would they be nice in it or not. Bring on recipes and ideas please. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinlan Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Roasted with salt as a yummy evening snack... Simple but very moorish! Or roasted and sprinkled with chillie powder... Or roasted with a bit of honey... Hmmm know what I'm having later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Spiced nuts? Add a small amount of oil to a frying pan and heat a teaspoon of cumin and half a teaspoon of chilli powder. Add the nuts and turn down the heat. Coat in the oil and spices, then transfer to a shallow dish and roast for 20 mins or so until the nuts are brown. Allow to cool and store in an airtight jar. Dad always gets these in his hamper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becka Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I toast them and put them in a storage jar for curry and chinese recipes but in reality they're eaten before they make it into food! Becka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 As others have said toasted and used in stir fries or for a snack, they are lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffyknickers Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 oooh lovely ideas thank you - knew I could rely on you lot. How long will they last toasted with those spices then in a jar and sealed? michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
