Spiced Cashews

On festive occasions it's great to have nuts for a snack.

We used to get spiced or Peri peri cashew nuts from Mozambique;

now we buy the un-salted, un-roasted nuts and make our own.

If you like these sweeter,

add more sugar and use ground cinnamon and ground clove

instead of paprika, cumin and coriander.

Ingredients:
125ml sugar
5ml paprika
2ml ground cumin
2ml ground coriander
2ml ground chilli - or peri peri spice if you can get it.
5ml salt
1 egg white, whipped
250g cashews

Method:
Put the nuts into the whipped egg whites and make sure they are well coated.
Put all the other ingredients into a shallow bowl and drop the nuts into this mixture, moving them around to coat the buts well.
Spread the nuts out on a baking tray and bake for 15-16 minutes at 180C.
