Making crispy fried cashews is simple and doesn’t take long to prepare. Let’s dive into the step-by-step process!
Prepare the Ingredients
Start by gathering all your ingredients. This ensures everything is within reach and ready to go.
Prepare Saltwater
Take a large mixing bowl and add 500 ml of water. Then, stir in 2 tablespoons of salt until it dissolves completely. Open the package of cashews and add them to the bowl with the salted water.
Soak the Cashews
Let the cashews soak in the salted water for about 30 minutes. This helps the salt to penetrate the cashews, enhancing their flavor.
Rinse the Cashews
After soaking, rinse the cashews under cold running water. Make sure the water runs gently to avoid damaging the cashews. Continue rinsing until the water runs clear, indicating that the salt has been washed off. After rinsing, set the cashews aside to drain.
In a large pan, heat 400 ml of cooking oil over medium-low heat. Add 200 g of Blue Band butter to the oil and allow it to melt. Keep the heat at a moderate level to prevent the butter from burning. The butter adds richness and flavor to the cashews, making them extra crispy.
Fry the Cashews
Once the butter is melted and the oil is heated, add the cashews to the pan. Stir the cashews frequently to ensure they cook evenly and don’t burn. This process should take around 30 minutes, so be patient and continue to stir occasionally. Keep an eye on the color and texture of the cashews as they fry.
Final Touches
As the cashews begin to brown and the aroma becomes more intense, continue frying for an additional 2 minutes to enhance the flavor. Once the cashews are golden and crispy, turn off the heat and transfer them to a strainer to remove excess oil. Let them cool for about 45 minutes before storing.
Serve and Enjoy
Once the cashews have cooled, they’re ready to be served. You can store them in an airtight container for later or place them in a bowl as a delicious snack for your guests. These crispy fried cashews make a perfect accompaniment to a refreshing drink or as a crunchy treat to enjoy on your own.
Fried cashews are the ultimate snack to enjoy during any occasion, whether it’s a cozy gathering with friends or a simple treat for yourself. With a few simple ingredients and straightforward steps, you can create this delightful snack at home, just like at Le Stanze Bistrot Cafe. We hope you give this recipe a try and enjoy the crispy, flavorful cashews that are sure to become a favorite in your snack repertoire.
