Two kinds of spiced cashews

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 400 g cashew nuts, unroasted
• 2 egg whites
• 2 tsp curry powder
• 2 tsp sweet paprika powder
• 1 tsp, leveled salt
• ¼ tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

for 10 – 15 servings

Combine the two egg whites with the salt in a suitable container and beat until stiff peaks form. Place half of the egg whites in a bowl and mix with the curry powder. Add half of the cashews to this mixture and mix thoroughly. All of the cashews should be coated. Add the paprika and cayenne pepper to the other half of the egg whites and mix everything together. Add the rest of the cashews and mix everything together again. Line a baking tray with baking paper and place each half with a spiced cashew. Distribute the cashews so that they are not overlapping. Bake the cashews at 180°C (fan 160°C, gas mark 2-3) for 15-20 minutes. Then let them cool slightly and separate any nuts that may be sticking together. Separate the spiced cashews by type and place them in a sieve – preferably a metal one – and shake briefly. This will remove any excess spice coating. Beautifully packaged, the spiced cashews also make a great souvenir.
