Honey Roasted Almonds recipe: Take 1 cup of almonds and dry roast them on a pan. Keep aside. In the same pan, heat 1 tsp olive oil or canola oil or ghee (clarified butter), add 2 tbsp honey, a pinch of salt and a pinch of cardamom powder. Add about half cup water and bring it to boil. Stir till you get slightly thick syrup. Pour the honey syrup over roasted almonds and let them soak the sweet flavours of the syrup. Make sure all the almonds are coated well with the honey syrup. Serve when the honey roasted almonds cool down.
Salted Roasted Almonds recipe: This roasted almond snack is so easy to make, you won't mind making a fresh batch every day. Slice almonds into two halves and roast them in a pan smeared with 1 tsp olive oil. Sprinkle about half tsp salt (or as per your taste) on the almonds and stir till the almonds are fragrant and change colour. It's best if you use Himalayan pink salt for this recipe.
You can make a large batch of roasted almonds and store in an airtight jar at room temperature. They should stay good for up to 2-3 months! Sprinkle some sesame seeds or chia seeds for some crunch and more nutrition.
