Think cashews and we can barely think of anything savoury after that point. But we often forget, that it is the cashews that make our plate of butter chicken so tempting. That’s right, cashews are dry fruits, that are renowned for their rich creamy, nutty flavour, and can be used to make so much more than Kaju Katli or Kaju Barfi. They can even be used to make a couple of your tea-time snacks. There’s a delicious savoury side to this dry fruit waiting to be unfurled, are you ready?
Here are five of our all-time cashew snacks.

Fried chicken, but with a rich and nutty twist. These cashew crusted chicken can be the life of any party, but even for an intimate setting, they spell magic.
