Fried Cashews With Lime Zest and Chile
This is my take on a popular bar snack in Thailand: freshly fried cashews tossed with salt, chiles, scallions, and lime zest. Simple but so good with a beer.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Fill a small saucepan with 1 inch oil and set over medium heat. Line a plate with paper towels and set it near the stove.
2
When the oil is shimmering-hot, carefully add the cashews and fry, stirring constantly, until light golden brown, 1 to ⏱️ 2 minutes. Keep in mind: The cashews will continue to cook after being removed from the oil and become a darker shade of brown, so it’s best to remove them when they are still a little pale. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cashews to the paper towels to drain.
3
Place the hot cashews in a serving bowl and sprinkle evenly with the salt and brown sugar, tossing to coat. Add the scallions, chile powder, and lime zest and toss once more. Serve warm.
