Quick, healthy and nutritious snacks are welcome in my house always. My family loves anything based on nuts and raisins(dry grapes). So here we are to learn how to make oven roasted dry nuts. It’s nice and easy to make, and all you need is a couple of minutes to gather the nuts and spread them on a sheet pan and season them. Then it’s turn to wait around 8 minutes to get crisp oven roasted dry nuts.
As always be careful with serving nuts owing to nut allergies and even more care is required when serving kids. This makes for a quick and easy snack to take with you for travel or picnics. It is so quick to make that your picnic or evening walk on the beach is set! Or on rainy evenings, so you see where this going, one can enjoy this on any kind of day or time.
I add almonds, cashews and pistachios, you can add any kind of nuts you like, pecans, walnuts or Brazil nuts etc. Adding a couple of drops of ghee makes the nuts extra crisp and fragrant and provides that moisture. I love black pepper flavoured roasted dry nuts but again the options are endless. Plain salted, honey, caramel, red chilli powder etc. are some. Enjoy more such snacks from FOI, oven roasted mung dal, baked aloo samosa, baked nippattu etc!
