Roasting cashews is a delightful way to enhance their natural flavour and create a more satisfying crunch. To begin, gather your raw cashews and preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread the cashews evenly on a baking tray, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.

Once the oven is ready, place the tray inside and roast the cashews for about 10 to 15 minutes. It's essential to stir them occasionally, allowing for uniform browning and preventing any from burning. Keep a close eye on them, as they can quickly go from perfectly roasted to overly toasted.

When the cashews reach a lovely golden hue and emit a rich, nutty aroma, remove the tray from the oven and let them cool. You might also like to toss them with a sprinkle of sea salt or your choice of spices while they’re still warm, adding an extra layer of flavour. Enjoy your roasted cashews as a tasty snack or use them to elevate your favourite dishes!
