Spicy Fried Cashews (a party favorite of my friends)

[Guest guest]

Spicy Fried Cashews

 

1/2 lb. raw cashews

1 cup oil, preferably peanut

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. chili powder

1/4 tsp. five spice powder

 

Heat a wok or large deep pan until it is hot, then add

the oil. When

the oil begins to smoke lightly, deep-fry the cashew

nuts for 2

minutes or until they begin to turn lightly brown.

While the cashew

nuts are browning, start another frying pan heating.

Remove the nuts

from the oil with a slotted spoon and add them

directly to the frying

pan.

Hint: Take the cashew nuts out of the oil when they

are lightly

browned as they continue cooking even after they are

taken out of the oil. Save the oil in which the nuts

have been cooked, as it can beused again. Add the

salt, pepper, chili powder and five spice powder and

stir-fry for 2 minutes or until the cashew nuts are

well coated with the spice. Allow to cool and serve

with drinks.
