Curried Cashew Nuts Recipes

ROASTED CURRY CASHEWS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Place cashews on a large baking sheet and arrange in a single layer. Roast 7 to 9 minutes, until slightly golden brown.
• Meanwhile, melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once melted, turn off the heat and stir in the spices.
• Place the roasted cashews in a large bowl. Pour the spiced coconut oil over the cashews and toss well to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CURRY-SPICED CASHEWS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (163 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (use more baking sheets, as needed, if increasing batch size).
• Add cashews to a bare baking sheet and toast for 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, add oil, maple syrup, and green curry paste to a medium mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly to combine.
• Remove slightly toasted cashews from the oven and add directly to the curry mixture. Toss to combine. Then add remaining spices (curry powder through sea salt), and toss thoroughly to combine.
• Add back to baking sheet and bake for another 8-12 minutes, or until golden brown and roasted. Once the cashews have cooled a bit, taste a cashew and adjust seasonings as needed while still warm on sheet. Add more cumin for smokiness, turmeric for earthiness, curry powder for more intense curry flavor, or coconut sugar for sweetness. Optional: sprinkle with lime zest and toss to coat.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 weeks. Best within the first week!

CURRIED CASHEWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet.
• Whisk together the egg white, curry powder and sugar in a medium bowl until thoroughly blended and slightly foamy. Add the cashews and toss to coat evenly. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Nuts will be fragrant and slightly darker but still a bit moist; they?ll crisp as they cool.
• Cool completely on the pan. Nuts will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

SRI LANKAN CASHEW CURRY

Steps:

• Drain and rinse cashews; set aside. Heat coconut oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and translucent, 5-7 minutes.
• Add curry powder, turmeric, paprika, and 1¼ tsp. salt to pot and cook, stirring to coat aromatics, until toasted and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add 1½ cups water to pot, scraping up any browned bits stuck to bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir in coconut milk and reserved cashews and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat so mixture is at a rapid simmer and cook, stirring occasionally and adjusting heat as needed, until cashews soften slightly and liquid is reduced by two thirds, 25-35 minutes. Remove from heat and let cashew curry sit 10 minutes (sauce will continue to thicken as it cools). Squeeze in lime juice; taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Cook's Note: Don't stress over the texture of the cashews. After their overnight soak and simmer, they'll be plenty soft-and you can't really overcook them.

• Add the tomatoes and stock to the pan. Mix well, then tip into a blender with the cashews and blitz until smooth. Return to the pan, season and bring to the boil, then lower to a simmer.
• Cook for 30 mins until the sauce has thickened then add the chicken, cover with a lid and simmer for another 15 mins, until the chicken is cooked through. Add the yogurt and cream (if using), and stir well to make a creamy sauce.
